**Presentation**:
The Department of Fundamental Microbiology offers a postdoctoral position in the microbiome and One Health assessing for sharing of AMR and other bacterial strains within the context of a One Health framework.

The Vonaesch lab is hosted by the Department of Fundamental Microbiology in Lausanne. Our work is centered on the role of the microbiota and the gut ecosystem in different forms of malnutrition to contribute to the understanding of the syndromes and harness then this knowledge to develop powerful interventions strategies and treatments. We are also more generally interested in the role of the microbiota in the triad linking gut health, infection and nutrition as well as in the influence of other domains (human, animal, environmental) on the human microbiota. To this purpose, we perform clinical/translational projects, especially in low-and middle-income countries (LMIC) and analyze the underlying molecular mechanisms using in vitro and in vivo mouse models.

This postdoc position will offer you the opportunity to work alongside a young and dynamic team of microbiota experts. You will further be part of the vibrant microbiome scene in the Arc Lémanique and Switzerland, with ample possibilities for networking and collaboration.
