Beschreibung
Job Advertisement Leibniz-HKI-26/2024 The Leibniz Institute for Natural Product Research and Infection Biology (Leibniz-HKI) investigates the pathobiology of human-pathogenic fungi and identifies targets for the development of novel natural product-based antibiotics.
The research group Microbiome Dynamics invites talented and highly gifted candidates to apply as Doctoral Researcher (m/f/div) in Microbiome Systems Biology for four years As part of a new EU-funded project, the Microbiome Dynamics (MBD) department contributes to developing microbiome-based creative solutions to address precision nutrition for immune health in obese people.
We are seeking an excellent and enthusiastic Ph.D.
student in the fields of metabolic modeling and/or microbiome data to work on this project and collaborate closely with an extensive network of top European scientists and start-ups.
D. project is to conduct extensive insilico microbiome metabolic modeling to predict food-microbiome interactions and their effects on immune health. A strong interest in conducting collaborative research on the topic outlined above is paramount
