Opportunities

We have already identified new enzymes, developed software tools for metabolomics data analysis, and quantified numerous biomolecules in cells that shed light on complex cellular phenomena. But there is still plenty to do. We are now focusing on developmental and differentiation processes in E. coli biofilms. You just need a vivid interest and enthusiasm, determination, and a drive to learn! Come and enjoy with us the scientific adventures and natural attractions of Japan’s ancient capital!

Feel free to contact me if you are interested in joining us as a student, for an internship or postdoc, or a collaboration. Be sure to mention your interests and motivation to join our group, what you hope to contribute to and how we can help you achieve your goal.

Internship (summer 2024 or during the semester)

We are looking for someone to help develop open-source low cost imaging systems built from 3D printed materials, simple LEDs and cameras controlled by a Raspberry Pi computer similar to the ones described in this project:
