The Open Bioeconomy Lab, headed by Dr. Jenny Molloy (openbioeconomy.org), is seeking a Postdoctoral Research Associate for OpenBioMAPS, a BBSRC Engineering Biology Mission Award developing open source tools for distributed biomanufacturing of enzymes and antibodies at low-cost using benchtop microbial and plant systems.
The overall goals of OpenBioMAPS are to work with UK biomanufacturing startups and SMEs to better understand their needs for next-generation, affordable technologies; seed a community of developers and users of open biomanufacturing tools; create training for academics and industry scientists to develop skills at the interface of biology and engineering; and use this as a springboard to run interdisciplinary mini-projects across the UK engineering biology community.
The role holder will engineer open-source bacterial strains for protein expression that can be freely distributed for commercial use. They will also support community-led development and characterisation of innovative DNA toolkits for protein expression in Escherichia coli and Pichia pastoris. They will collaborate with Prof Jim Haseloff (Department of Plant Sciences) and Dr Matthew Wayland (Department of Zoology) on bioreactor and bioprocessing platforms to enable UK startups and SMEs to rapidly establish protein biomanufacturing workflows with low capital expenditure.
Appointment at Research Associate level is dependent on having a PhD; those without a PhD will be appointed at Research Assistant level. Those who have submitted but not yet received their PhD will be appointed at Research Assistant level, which will be amended to Research Associate once the PhD has been awarded.
Fixed-term: The funds for this post are available until 13 February 2026 in the first instance.
The University has a responsibility to ensure that all employees are eligible to live and work in the UK.
