About this position
2 PhD positions are available in Systems Microbiology and Environmental Biotechnology within Michele Laureni’s NWO VIDI project DecodeN: “Decoding Metabolic Crossroads in Microbial Nitrogen Cycling for Climate Resilience.”
The project is hosted at Delft University of Technology and focuses on nitrogen cycling, microbiomes, bioreactors, and computational biology. The research aims to understand how co-occurring nitrogenous substrates shape the genomic and functional signatures of nitrogen-cycling microbial communities and their emergent phenotypes.
This opportunity is well suited to candidates interested in microbial ecology, systems microbiology, environmental biotechnology, and data-driven analysis of biological systems. The post does not list detailed eligibility criteria, but it clearly invites applicants who are passionate about nitrogen-cycling microbiomes and who enjoy combining experimental bioreactor work with computational approaches.
Funding is tied to an NWO (Dutch Research Council) VIDI project. The post does not specify stipend, tuition, or other financial terms.
Application deadline: September 9.
How to apply: Use the application link provided in the post and submit before the deadline. Review the position details on the linked page for full instructions.
