Within the NWO-National Growthfund Program Cellular Agriculture (CAN) we are recruiting a highly motivated PhD student that will develop a non-model filamentous fungus as an ultimate host for the production of animal proteins from grass. In close collaboration with our academic partners (HAN-BioCentre, Nijmegen and Avans-UAS, Breda) and industrial partners (The Protein Express and Those Vegan Cowboys) these proteins will be produced and characterized for use in food applications. This CAN partnership covers the entire process chain: from strain design (Leiden University, Avans-UAS) and laboratory-scale fermentation (HAN BioCentre, The Protein Express) to process integration and validation (The Protein Express, Those Vegan Cowboys). All consortium partners will closely collaborate and learn from each other in all project work packages. The complementary expertise of all consortium partners will ensure successful development of this new bioprocess from start to finish. The position for the PhD student in this project is a crucial link within the project. Therefore, besides bringing scientific excellence our preferred candidate should also be an excellent team player.

Key tasks

Establishment of a genetic toolbox for SynBio applications on a non-model fungus
Development of a robust expression system for heterologous protein expression
Improve production titers by gaining detailed knowledge on the transcriptional activator(s) that drive expression of the relevant heterologous genes
Optimize production levels of milk proteins via medium optimization and genetic strain improvement, based on leads obtained from transcriptomics and protein stability assays
Communication and discussion of research findings with partners; dissemination and outreach via scientific publications and public engagement activities
Contribute to teaching activities, for example through supervision of BSc and MSc students
