PhD or Post-doc (f/m/d) on engineering living materials for lighting

25.07.2024, Wissenschaftliches Personal

We offer a deep immersion in bacteria-based energy technologies; the candidate will learn and live the translational perspective of designing biomaterials for sustainable energy-related applications every day. The successful candidate will hold a 3-year contract with the possibility of extension up to 1 years.

Requirement:

We are looking for an individual with initiative and motivation to work at a dynamic chair at TUM in the framework of the DFG-SPP2451 project ENABLED. The research activities will cross the boundary between protein engineering, microbiology, polymer design, bacteria-based materials, and fabrication/analysis of bio-hybrid LEDs. This will be complemented by spectroscopic, mechanical and microscopic characterization techniques. The workflow spans from protein engineering and polymer design, through the preparation and characterization of bacteria-polymer materials, to fabrication and analysis of bio-hybrid lighting devices.

Qualifications:

  • High motivation and commitment to scientific excellence.
  • Master's degree (10 semesters) and/or PhD in  biochemistry/ biotechnology/ chemistry/ materials science or related disciplines.
  • Team skills and enthusiasm for working in a multidisciplinary, collaborative environment are required.
  • Experience in fluorescent protein engineering and is required.
  • Experience in (bio)-polymer chemistry is required.
  • Experience in handling and characterize (bio)-polymer composites is required.
  • Experience in handling and characterize bacteria living materials is required Previous work experience in lighting systems will be viewed favorably.
  • Excellent English language skills (fluent in writing and speaking). No knowledge of German is completely acceptable (free training will be provided)

The position is suitable for disabled persons. Disabled applicants will be given preference in case of generally equivalent suitability, aptitude and professional performance.
