芬兰阿尔托大学2022年招聘博士后职位（生物化学/酶学）

Postdoctoral Researcher in Biochemistry / Enzymology

Aalto University

Description

The goal is to functionally express and test key enzymes for the conversion of CO2 to fuels. The postdoc position is focussed on metalorganic enzymes involved in the transfer of alkyl-groups, which require oxygen-sensitive cofactors harbouring reduced metal centres, such as Co or Ni. The actual research is on a fundamental level, but the long-term goal is designing new routes to generate renewable fuels from CO2.

Research is carried out at our excellent facilities at Aalto University, School of Chemical Engineering (https:// www. bioeconomyinfra.fi/). The laboratories are situated on the main campus of Aalto University in Otaniemi (short metro-ride from Helsinki) within the Department of Bioproducts and Biosystems (https: // www. aalto.fi/en/department-of-bioproducts-and- biosystems).

recently obtained PhD (max 5 years) in a suitable field, such as biochemistry, enzyme engineering, (bio)organic chemistry

Enzymology, expression and functional studies of enzymes

Be highly committed to science and strive for excellence

Develop own smart ideas and think independently

Be able to focus on solving tough scientific problems

Have good written and oral communication skills in English

Skills, knowledge or interest in some of the following areas are highly appreciated:
