Join us

We always welcome young scientists to join the team to explore the world of synthetic biology.

PhD project

We are looking for an enthusiastic, self-funded PhD student for developing a biosensor design based on genetic memory circuit.

In this project we aim to understand and improve the robustness for genetic circuits for engineering and industrial applications. Please contact Chieh for further information.

Research Master

We are looking for Master's students to join the following projects:

  • Synthetic design to fine tune protein membrane interaction
  • Molecular requirement to activate Rab-GTPase loop on cellular membranes
  • Adaptation of switching rate between activities in gene regulatory network: an evolutionary synthetic model

For detailed descriptions of these projects please refer to School of Biosciences or contact Chieh directly.

Undergraduate / Erasmus projects

If you are interested to learn how to conduct research and apply the knowledge you learnt in the lectures, why not join the lab for short scientific projects? You will take part in a bigger research plan and have hands-on experience in the wet lab or computational simulation. Please contract Chieh to discuss your Interest. Of course we encourage and support students to apply for vacation findings!
