Jobbeschreibung The Chair of Intestinal Microbiome, School of Life Sciences of the TU Munich offers a PhD position to per-form research on the Intestinal Microbiome. We are an international interdisciplinary team bridging molecu-lar microbiology, ecology and infection research with the focus to understand mechanisms of host-microbe and microbe-microbe interaction in the gut.

Our lab has a broad expertise in employing synthetic microbial communities, gnotobiotic mouse infection models as well as in molecular microbiology of gut microbiota and enteric pathogens. The TUM School of Life Sciences provides an interactive and supportive environment for advancing intestinal microbiome research and extensive support for PhD candidates. Researchers benefit from opportunities to engage in a wide range of interdisciplinary collaborations such as the Collaborative Research Center 1371 “Microbial Signatures – Functional Relevance in the Digestive Tract” (https://www.sfb1371.tum.de/) and access to different core facilities (sequencing, proteomics and metabolomics). This dynamic setting fosters innovation and teamwork, enabling cutting-edge discoveries in the field of microbiome studies.

The candidate will work on a project funded within the DFG Priority Programme “Illuminating Gene Functions in the Human Gut Microbiome” (SPP 2474) and be involved in microbiology and molecular microbiology of the gut microbiota, metaproteomic analyses, functional genomic screens and metagenomic and as well as metabolic modelling of gut microbial communities.
