Postdoctoral positions in synthetic biology at uiuc

The laboratory of Ting Lu (https://lulab.bioen.illinois.edu/) in the department of bioengineering at the university of illinois at urbana-champaign (uiuc) are seeking multiple postdoctoral researchers in microbial synthetic biology.

(1) experimental positions: multiple positions are offered to work in microbial synthetic biology, an interdisciplinary research field that focuses on the design, analysis and construction of genetic regulatory networks for cellular functionality reprogramming.

Ideal candidates for these positions should have extensive experiences in molecular cloning and DNA assembly for microbes with a ph.d. in biological and related sciences. experiences in yeast genetic engineering, lactic acid bacteria engineering, or microbial metabolic engineering are a plus but not necessary.  

(2) computational position: a computational position is offered to work in theoretical analysis and computational simulations of microbial metabolism, particularly the metabolic flux of model and non-model yeast species.

ideal candidates for the position should have a solid training in quantitative sciences (e.g., physics or biophysics), experiences in programming (e.g., c/c++), and an open mindset. experience in flux balance analysis and knowledge in microbial physiology are a plus but not necessary.  

salary is commensurate with skills and experience. the initial appointment is for one year and can be extended up to three years upon mutual agreement.

interested candidates should send their research interests, curriculum vitae along with the name and contact information of three referees to Dr. ting lu (email: luting@illinois.edu)
