We are seeking two (2) talented postdoctoral researchers to join the Synthetic Biology Translational Research Programme (TRP) at the National University of Singapore’s Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine. Our programme applies synthetic biology to achieve positive clinical impact, with a focus on engineering microbial-based live biotherapeutics that can sense, compute, and deliver therapeutic functions in relevant biological environments.
The Research Fellows (RFs) will work closely with the Principal Investigator and the research team to develop microbial-based live biotherapeutics - from genetic circuit design and strain engineering through to functional testing and iteration. The RFs will be expected to drive projects, generate high-quality datasets, and contribute to manuscripts and grant deliverables. Appointments will be initially made on a 1-year contract, with the possibility of extension.
