The PhD position is part of a structured PhD program in the Biozentrum and funded for up to 4 years. The Dehio Lab offers a highly interactive, interdisciplinary and international team of enthusiastic scientists. The mission of our group is to understand molecular mechanisms of bacterial infection and resilience to antibiotics with the goal to develop novel anti-infective strategies. Our group spans expertise on cutting-edge techniques in the fields of molecular biology, microbiology, cell biology and animal experimentation. Moreover, the Biozentrum offers excellent internal support from various state-of-the-art core facilities with expert staff. In the frame of the wider NCCR AntiResist network (https://www.nccr-antiresist.ch/en/) we collaborate closely with researchers with complementary expertise, in particular with clinicians, bioengineers, chemists and computational scientists. In this interdisciplinary framework we are able to study bacterial infection and the response to antibiotics by an integrated approach “from bedside to bench and back again”.
