The project involves investigations into morphological changes such as biofilm formation, coccoid and spore formation in mycobacterial cells seen in response to different metabolic/ environmental stress conditions. Genes/ factors that are involved in and influence morphological changes causing sporulation and biofilm formation, as well as signals that regulate these processes will be identified and their roles will be studied. The global gene expression profiles in cells that have been grown under different growth and stress conditions will be mapped. The focus will be on Mycobacterium spp., in particular the fish pathogen M. marinum, considered to be a model system for Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Duties and Eligibility: Academically excellent and motivated candidates with a degree at Masters level in natural sciences with focus on microbiology/ molecular biology and/ or infectious biology and has experience to work with Mycobacterium spp. are invited to apply. Research experience, high marks, and practical experience in microscopy and imaging of Mycobacterium spp. cells are particular merits. The candidate should have a good social competence, and be able to work in an international research environment. An excellent knowledge of spoken and written English is an absolute requirement.
A PhD position is for a maximum of five years. A PhD student would be expected to primarily focus on research at the doctoral level, however, he/ she will also be expected to teach and/or supervise labs for at most 20% of the time.
In order to be eligible you will have to be registered as a Ph.D. student. The rules governing this process can be found (in Swedish) in Högskoleförordningen 5 kap 1-7 §§ and in University rules http://regler.uu.se/
Local rules apply for salaries.
Uppsala University is striving to achieve a more even gender balance and hence women are especially encouraged to apply for this position.
Applications should include a CV, a brief description of research interests and past research experience, copies of exam-certificates and grades, a copy of the candidates Master's thesis (or a summary) and a cover letter motivating why you are interested in the position. The candidates are encouraged to provide letters of recommendation or contact information to at least two reference persons.
