Zürich, Zürich, Schweiz ETH get hired Vollzeit
About the Project

Our project focuses on understanding the links between bacterial species and strain-level metabolic capacity, patient phenotype, and urine volatile metabolome. We aim to develop novel diagnostics for urinary tract infections (UTIs) by combining rational combinations of molecules that are informative for identifying pathogen species and risks with targeted nanosensor design and device engineering.

As a postdoctoral researcher, you will play a key role in this project by contributing to the development of new methods and collaborating with the team. Your work will involve:

  • Conducting fundamental research on bacterial metabolism and host-pathogen interactions
  • Developing new methods for mass spectrometry analysis of small molecules
  • Collaborating with the team to design and engineer novel diagnostics for UTIs

We offer a dynamic research environment, excellent resources, and opportunities for professional growth and development.
