PhD scholarship in engineering food safe chassis strains - BRIGHT

Kort om jobbet

Official occupation: ph.d., naturvidenskab og teknik. Employment conditions: Almindelige vilkår. Employer CVR: 30060946. Primary career market: Public Sector, Education & Impact (occupation evidence). Are you excited by the challenge of engineering fungal cells to become the foundation of a new global food category? Passionate about combining genetic tools with fermentation science to make food-grade chassis measurably safer? Interested in working in a rapidly growing, interdisciplinary research environment tackling food-system challenges? Then join us as our new PhD Student in Microbial Strain Engineering! This position is a part of BRIGHT's mission- oriented Microbial Food research programme (“referred to as Mission 2”), which aims to build an AI-powered framework for the rational design of microbial foods that meet four targets: consumer acceptance, health, sustainability and scalability. The first phase focuses on two fungal chassis, Aspergillus and Yarrowia, characterizing more than 500 prototypes through multi-omics, sensory analysis, life-cycle assessment and safety testing. Predictive models for flavor, texture, nutrition and process scale-up are trained iteratively through active learning1 …
