CSIRO Postdoctoral Fellowship in Synthetic Biology
CSIRO Early Research Career (CERC) Postdoctoral Fellowships provide opportunities to scientists and engineers who have completed their doctorate and have less than three years of relevant postdoctoral work experience. These fellowships aim to develop the next generation of future leaders of the innovation system.
CSIRO Land & Water has an exciting opportunity for a new Postdoctoral Fellow to ‘supercharge’ current bioproduction secretion systems. Yeast expression systems have become globally important in the new era of bioproduction as they offer the advantage of production in systems with similar machinery/coding to animal and plant cells (as opposed to bacterial production routes) and can be grown as single cell cultures in large scale fermentation, generating a range of high value products.
This Postdoctoral Fellowship project seeks to engineer an enhanced microbial system for recombinant protein secretion. This project is an excellent opportunity for the Postdoctoral Fellow to explore cutting-edge, highly topical science, with an exceptional support team providing cross-disciplinary exposure and a depth of academic research and innovation experience.
