Stillingsbeskrivelse

NTNU – Norwegian University of Science and Technology is seeking a PhD Candidate in molecular cell biology and microbiology to join the Department of Clinical and Molecular Medicine (IKOM) in Trondheim. This position is part of an interdisciplinary research project focused on preparedness and response to antimicrobial resistance (AMR).

About the project

The successful candidate will work on identifying and characterizing novel antimicrobial peptides derived from human plasma. The research involves elucidating mechanisms of action, identifying bacterial targets, and evaluating the efficacy of these peptides—both as single agents and in combination with existing antibiotics—against clinical AMR isolates.

Key responsibilities

Complete the doctoral education program and obtain a PhD degree.
Conduct high-quality research within the project framework.
Disseminate research findings through academic publications and popular science communication.
Collaborate closely with other PhD candidates within the interdisciplinary AMR research team.

Qualifications

Master's degree in molecular cell biology, microbiology, or an equivalent field.
Strong academic background with an average grade of B or better (NTNU scale).
Proficiency in written and oral English.
Experience with bacterial cultures, microbiological assays, mammalian cell culture, or analysis of large genomic/proteomic datasets is considered an advantage.

What we offer

A four-year position in an international and professional research environment.
Access to career guidance, a mentor program, and working capital for project implementation.
Membership in the Norwegian Public Service Pension Fund (SPK).
Opportunities for professional development and free basic Norwegian language training.

Krav

You must hold a relevant Master's degree in molecular cell biology, microbiology, or equivalent.
You must have an average grade from your Master's degree equivalent to B or better on the NTNU scale.
You must be eligible for admission to the PhD programme in Medicine and Health Sciences at NTNU.
You must possess strong written and oral English language skills.
You must be able to work independently and in a structured manner within an interdisciplinary team.
