What do we require
Primarily, we are looking for a candidate with a solid expertise in theoretical and practical molecular biology. Therefore, a PhD in biotechnology, biocatalysis or cognate disciplines is required. In particular, the project will require the daily use of standard cloning techniques, manipulation of genes (e.g., excision, ligation), PCR, gene purification, etc. Experience in the cultivation of microbial cultures (e.g., E. coli), and protein expression are also desirable.
Other tasks will be biotransformation reactions using whole cells and analysis of conversion and enantiomeric excess by GC or HPLC. However, for the latter two tasks, support and training can be provided by staff. Experience in computational/structural analysis of proteins is a plus.
The ability to collaborate and adapt in an international team, and work in collaboration with partners from industry is required. It is necessary you have good communication skills in oral and written English.
