<p class="">Dear Colleagues,</p>
<p class="">Could you please forward the following
information to any excellent synthetic biology PostDoc
interested in participating in the development of a
<b class="">novel, fast and efficient resource recycling
system for improving the performance of engineered
cells</b>.</p>

http://www.imperial.ac.uk/people/g.stan</a>) at
Imperial College London is seeking to appoint an
excellent, highly motivated and dynamic Research
Associate to join the Centre for Synthetic Biology and
Innovation (CSYNBI), on a fixed-term position to work on
a novel and exciting <b class="">synthetic biology</b>
project.<br class="">
<br class="">
The position will be based at the South Kensington
Campus in the Stan Group, working closely with Dr
Guy-Bart Stan, his research group and other members of
CSYNBI on a project focused on the use and control of
proteases in E. coli and the re-engineering of the
trans-translation pathway to increase the
turn-over/recycling of amino acids and thereby improve
production yields of proteins. The successful candidate
will design and implement a novel and
<b class="">efficient synthetic resource recycling
system</b> that will allow for any strain of a given
bacterial host expressing a synthetic biology construct
to a) sense the occurrence of wasteful sequestration of
ribosomes and amino acids and b) automatically activate,
in response, a synthetic recycling mechanism releasing
these resources, thereby offering a novel way to
increase protein production yields by simultaneously
improving growth and protein production rates.<br
class="">
<br class="">
We seek a highly motivated individual to fill this post,
in possession of a PhD or equivalent in synthetic
biology, molecular microbiology, systems biology, or
cellular engineering with desired postdoctoral
experience in a synthetic biology lab.<br class="">
<br class="">
The ideal candidate will have expertise in E. coli
synthetic biology and microbial biology engineering, and
in mathematical modelling and numerical simulations
(deterministic and/or stochastic) of biological or
biochemical systems. He or she will be proficient in
designing and cloning genes using next generation
cloning methods (e.g. Gibson, Golden Gate, BASIC, etc.)
and in engineering of cellular systems. Experience with
fluorescence-based measurement and analysis, FACS, and
genetic engineering are essential. Expertise and/or
experience with mathematical modelling (e.g. using
Matlab) is highly desirable. The post is funded by the
UK Engineering and Physical Science Research Council
(EPSRC).</p>
