PostDoc or PhD position on molecular methods for the detection of infectious disease agents in wastewater
Throughout the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic in Switzerland, we have been actively monitoring wastewater for the presence of SARS-CoV-2 RNA. Our work has led to time series data on SARS-CoV-2 RNA concentrations in wastewater from six wastewater treatment plants across Switzerland, translation of the data into wastewater-derived effective reproduction numbers and time series data on SARS-CoV-2 Variants of Concern from wastewater. We are also actively working on faster, sequence-independent approaches for detection of Variants of Concern in wastewater.
**If you are** excited about this topic, and have a background (MSc or PhD) in microbiology, molecular biology, environmental sciences, environmental engineering, public health, or related field, you are invited to apply. Prior experience in molecular methods, including RNA/DNA extraction and qPCR/dPCR is necessary. Experience in virology, sequencing (PacBio, Illuminaand/or Nanopore) with associated bioinformatics is beneficial.
**Application evaluation is on a rolling basis and will continue until the position is filled.**Please include a letter of motivation (one page maximum) explaining why you think you fit this position well, a CV and the names and contact information of two references.
**Eawag is **a modern employer and offers an excellent working environment where staff can contribute their strengths, experience and ways of thinking.
