Institut für Parasitologie_
- Vektor Entomologie_
**Postdoctoral research position**
**80-100% for 4 years **:The Institute for Parasitology is affiliated to both the Vetsuisse and Medical Faculty. The Vector Entomology Group is one of the five research groups of the institute, engaging in experimental and descriptive research on various aspects of insects (vectors) that can transmit pathogens. Thus, we address questions of vector biology and behaviour, vector capacity, molecular identification and novel approaches for control and monitoring. We are an international group of scientists (biologists, veterinarians) with a strong track record of extramural funding.
The postdoctoral researcher will work on an international project with two groups in Belgium (Prof. Delang, KU Leuven; Prof. Joossens, Dr. Callewaert, Ghent University) The title of the project is “Impact of skin bacteria on mosquito host finding and on host infection with mosquito-borne viruses”. Goal of the project is to significantly decrease human and animal attractiveness to mosquitoes by altering the composition of the bacteria on the skin and consequently reduce pathogen transmission. We will use innovative methodology to steer the skin microbiome of mice. Tasks of the team in Zürich include the volatile analysis of skin bacterial communities in vivo and in vitro and to determine their role in the attraction of the bacterial volatiles to mosquitoes. The proposed project will generate fundamental information on the impact of host skin bacteria on the attraction to mosquitoes.
Send a single PDF titled 'PostDoc skin bacteria_familyname' with a short (max. 2 pages) motivation letter explaining your interest in, and qualification for the position, CV including publication list, and contact details of 2-3 referees.
**Wir bieten Ihnen**: We offer a stimulating environment for research in the important field of vector entomology, with an outstanding research infrastructure. The salary of the post-doc will be according to the regulations of the Swiss National Science Foundation.
**Arbeitsort**: Vetsuisse-Faculty, University of Zürich, and short stays at collaborators in Belgium.
