Phd Position On Novel Mrna Nanotherapeutics Against

vor 3 Monaten


Basel, Schweiz Universität Basel Vollzeit

**Your position**

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global health concern. In recent decades, pan-resistant bacteria have emerged, rendering commonly available antibiotics ineffective. Consequently, many pivotal advancements in modern medicine are now under threat. As the development of new antimicrobials stagnates, there is an urgent need for alternative strategies to identify clinically effective treatments. In this project, we aim to develop a novel strategy for the treatment of antibiotic-resistant pulmonary infections via taking advantage of nanoparticle and mRNA technologies. mRNA technology has gained significant attention in various therapeutic areas, particularly in the development of vaccines for COVID-19. However, the potential of mRNA therapies against antimicrobial resistance has not yet been explored. With this project, we aim to bring the mRNA therapeutics beyond the current state-of-the-art.

**Your profile**

**We offer you**

The student will become a member of the Swiss Nanoscience Institute (SNI) PhD school and will benefit from personal support, a strongly interdisciplinary social environment, training in soft skills offered by the PhD program, and many internal SNI events.
