Postdoctoral Researcher in Microbiology
The Elflab is an interdisciplinary group of scientists led by Prof. Johan Elf. The group works with physical modeling of biological processes aimed at identifying inconsistences in the current understating of life at the molecular level, formulation of quantitative hypothesis, and development of sufficiently accurate measurement techniques to test the predictions.
The postdoc will work in close collaboration with microfluidics experts, biophysicists, computer scientists, optical engineers, biochemists and molecular biologists, and software developers but is expected to run his/her own project independently. A strong track record from experimental projects, a passion for science and good interpersonal skills are prerequisites for the position.
Qualifications required:
- Creative and self-motivated personality with interest in fundamental science
- Documented experience in experimental bacterial genetics/strain construction
- Excellent problem solving skills
- Good interpersonal skills
- PhD in microbiology or equivalent competence
