PhD student at the Center for Systems Microbiology,Technical University of Denmark
Position available for a PhD student at the Center for Systems Microbiology (CSM) Department of Systems Biology, DTU, Denmark.
The project is aimed at improving our understanding of how antibiotic resistance develops in microbial communities, including the human microbiome, and how human genetic host factors influence microbiome composition and its antibiotic resistance profile. We will develop and apply cutting edge functional metagenomic techniques, next generation sequencing, single cell analysis and microfluidics to address these important questions.
