Unlock the Secrets of Microbial Interactions

We are seeking a highly motivated and talented PhD candidate to join our junior research group Secondary Metabolism of Microbial Interactions at the Leibniz Institute for Natural Product Research and Infection Biology.

About the Project

Our team is investigating the pathobiology of human-pathogenic fungi and developing novel natural product-based antiinfectives. We are particularly interested in the discovery of novel antimicrobial natural products from the moss microbiome, a promising but understudied habitat.

Your Role

As a PhD candidate, you will use a combination of bioinformatics and metabolomics methods to determine the biosynthetic potential of moss-associated bacteria, select promising strains for (co)cultivation, isolate and characterize novel natural products, and determine their bioactivities.

Requirements
  • Master's degree in life sciences or chemistry
  • Strong interest in interdisciplinary research of natural products, biosynthetic pathways/enzymes, and microbial interactions
  • Experience in working with microorganisms and chemistry (natural product isolation and purification) or analytical chemistry (LC-MS, NMR) is an advantage
  • Data analysis and programming skills are a plus
  • Very good communication skills in English
What We Offer

We offer a multifaceted scientific project with excellent technical facilities, a place in a committed team, and strong scientific collaborations. You will participate in the structured program of the International Leibniz Research School and can become an associated member of the Jena School of Microbial Communication.

Salary is paid according to German TV-L (salary agreement for public service employees). We are proud to be an equal opportunity employer and promote diversity and inclusion in the workplace.
