博士预备期科学项目助理

该项目通过单细胞活性测定、宏基因组学与宏转录组学技术，研究海洋表层微层中细菌的作用及其季节变化。申请者应拥有海洋生物学或相关领域的硕士学位，具备实验室实验经验，并具备生物信息学技能。

Your personal sphere of influence: You will investigate which bacteria are active in the sea-surface microlayer, the boundary layer between ocean and atmosphere, and how they vary over a seasonal cycle and along an Atlantic transect. By combining single-cell activity measurements with metagenomics and metatranscriptomics, you will identify the traits that allow key taxa such as SAR11 and Roseobacteraceae to thrive at the air-sea interface. The start of the contract is 1 February 2027. The employment period is 3.5 years from the beginning of the contract. As a team, an open, collaborative and respectful working environment is important to us. Your future tasks: You actively participate in research and teaching, which means: You sample the SML and the underlying water in northern Germany together with our project partners at GEOMAR in Kiel, during the first project year only (about 3 days per month, first sampling in February 2027). You take part in the research cruise of RV METEOR across the tropical and subtropical Atlantic (February/March 2028), including sampling and shipboard experiments. You measure the activity of specific bacterial groups at the single-cell level using CARD-FISH, BONCAT and Redox Sensor Green (RSG), combined with flow cytometry and microscopy. You extract nucleic acids, prepare metagenomic and metatranscriptomic samples and analyse the data bioinformatically (about 85% laboratory and field work, 15% bioinformatics). You co-supervise MSc students in the laboratory; teaching can be added at a later stage if you wish. You aim for a doctoral thesis comprising three papers within the Vienna Doctoral School of Ecology and Evolution (VDSEE) and present your results at international conferences and project meetings. You collaborate closely with the project partners at the University of Oldenburg and GEOMAR Kiel.
