Doctoral Programme Industrial Biotechnology – 6 Open Fellowships in Biology, Biotechnology, Biochemistry, Germany

Review Topic:Biology/Biotechnology/Biochemistry Employer: Biology/Biotechnology/Biochemistry Stage:PhD Scholarship Description: The CLIB-Graduate Cluster Industrial Biotechnology provides 6 PhD scholarships commencing in the autumn 2011 semester. This is a structured doctoral programme of Bielefeld University, the TU Dortmund University and the University of Duesseldorf. All three universities are situated in NRW, the most populous state of Germany with an superb study and industrial infrastructure. Doctoral candidates will join top rated study labs operating equally on applied and fundamental study, get aspect in key qualification programs and yearly retreats, and are encouraged to join a company for a 3-month industrial internship. They will acquire a tax-totally free stipend of 1500 EUR per month for 36 months.

Investigation tasks in the cluster span the assortment of industrial biotechnology. In our current contact, we offer assignments at

Bielefeld University • polyomics (bioinformatics, methods biology, -omics technologies,) • expression (novel and established organisms, secretion systems)

TU Dortmund University • expression (novel and established organisms, secretion techniques) • biocatalysis (complete-cell and single-molecule biocatalysis, enzyme optimisation)

The subsequent assignments are appropriate for candidates with a diploma in biology, biochemistry, biotechnology or related locations.
