NEW! Eight currently open PhD positions

8 additional PhD positions are being offered in chemistry, microbiology, bioscience engineering, craft science, textile technology and food chemistry, in Austria, Finland, France, Germany, and Sweden. The Marie Skłodowska Curie Doctoral Network “DyeAnotherWay” is inviting applications for a 36 month full time fixed term position as a Doctoral Candidate (DC). This research project is a collaboration between 17 organisations, including 9 academic and 8 nonacademic, from 11 countries (AT, BE, BR, DE, ES, FI, FR, PT, SE, UK, USA) across Europe and beyond. The research aims to investigate all aspects of biogenic dyes, from the identification of dye-producing bacteria and the characterization of their pigments, through the optimization of their production and application, to the comprehensive ecological and economic evaluation of the resulting solutions.
