Postdoc and Ph.D. opportunities
Our lab at the
Biozentrum of the University of Basel focuses on understanding
bacterial multicellular development and functions, using
biofilms and the interactions of biofilms with mammalian hosts as model
systems. To get an overview of recent projects,
take a look at the
publications
page.
We are often looking for scientists to join our lab with the following background:
Postdoc or PhD student with experience
in RNA work.
Postdoc or PhD student with background
in metabolism.
Postdoc or PhD student with background
in biochemistry.
Postdoc or PhD student with background
in bioinformatics.
Postdoc or PhD student with background
in physics/biophysics.
The exact projects are flexible and will be developed together with
Knut, depending on the strengths and interests of the postdoc/PhD
student. To apply for these positions, please contact Knut.
Bachelor and Master students
We have a range of interesting projects for Bachelor and Master
students in physics, biology, engineering, and bioinformatics. The
projects will focus on understanding bacterial biofilm formation and
interfering with biofilm formation, or bacterial swarming. If you are
interested in working in
the lab, send Knut Drescher an
e-mail at firstname.surname@unibas.ch.
Summer internships
Our lab regularly hosts undergraduate students for summer internships
for 8 weeks or more. If you are interested in an internship in
the lab, send Knut Drescher an e-mail at firstname.surname@unibas.ch.
