Work on CRISPR-mediated gene editing and algal biology at UNSW, contributing to climate resilience research in Australia.

As a Postdoctoral Fellow, you will undertake research within BABS and the Golden Genome Project, funded by Revive and Restore. The project identifies climate resilience determining loci in microalgae with small genomes and applies gene editing to Ecklonia radiata. The appointment involves independent research, collaboration, scholarly dissemination, and contributions to research development.

Key Responsibilities:
Conduct discipline-appropriate research using appropriate research methods
Lead microalgal insertional deletion library construction
Develop transformation protocols for Ecklonia radiata




Record results and contribute to scholarly research outputs
Present project outcomes at relevant conferences and workshops

Requirements:
PhD in a related discipline or relevant experience
Microalgal culture and transformation experience
Robust molecular biology expertise and research capability
Evidence of publications and conference presentations
Commitment to current discipline knowledge and development

Bring independent research capability, CRISPR interests, and algal biology expertise to UNSW’s climate resilience project.
