Microbial Genetics: Biofuels and Carbon Cycling
POSTDOCTORAL POSITIONS available to study the direct conversion of carbon dioxide to fuels and chemicals with microbial electrosynthesis (see http://geobacter.org for details) or to investigate electron exchange mechanisms between members of anaerobic microbial communities involved in terrestrial methane production. Significant expertise in microbial genetics required. Previous experience in working with anaerobic microorganisms desirable.
For research program details please visit geobacter.org. Please email curriculum vitae and names of three references to: Dr. Derek Lovley, Environmental Biotechnology Center, Department of Microbiology, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, MA. Email: dlovley@microbio.umass.edu. UMASS is an Affirmative Action Employer/Equal Opportunity. Women and members of minority groups are encouraged to apply.
