In the LMU working group "Microbial Biochemistry", Campus Martinsried. Project: Work on glycomicrobiology using state-of the-art technologies in microbial genetics and biochemistry, we aim to understand bacterial rhamnosylation.Contact: juergen.lassak@lmu.de. Application deadline: 31.07.2024

At the Fraunhofer Institute for Molecular Biology and Applied Ecology IME; Research project: Metabolic engineering and fermentation of anaerobic microorganisms as so-called biocatalysts for the synthesis of fuels (drop-in-fuels) and bulk chemicals. The gases produced in large quantities (a mixture of CO, CO2 and H2) are to be recycled or used to produce valuable raw materials for industry.
