Qualifications To be admitted and employed as a PhD student, you must meet the requirements below. Eligibility Requirements You meet the basic eligibility for doctoral level education if you have: completed an advanced level degree or completed course requirements of at least 240 higher education credits, of which at least 60 higher education credits at advanced level or acquired equivalent knowledge in another way. Specific eligibility for Biochemistry and Structural Biology is met if you have: A master's degree, or equivalent qualification, in molecular biotechnology, synthetic biology, bioinformatics, protein design, or another related field relevant to the research project. Additional Requirements To benefit from the current doctoral education, the following is also required: Documented experience developing and working with Linux- and Python-based computational workflows for advanced scientific data analysis and computational research. Knowledge of and experience developing and applying modern computational platforms for protein design, including models for protein backbone generation (e.g., RFdiffusion), reinforcement learning-based methods, models for protein sequence design (e.g., ProteinMPNN), and structure prediction models (e.g., AlphaFold or equivalent). Experience in molecular biology and protein biochemistry, particularly in developing and using high-throughput experimental workflows for protein expression, protein purification, and functional characterization. Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and organizational skills, with the ability to work independently, manage multiple research projects in parallel, and demonstrate the work discipline and persistence required to thrive in a demanding research environment. Excellent collaboration and communication skills, and the ability to contribute to a positive and supportive research environment. Good written and oral communication skills. Very good knowledge of English, spoken and written. Selection Criteria Selection among eligible applicants will be based on ability to benefit from the education according to the following criteria: Knowledge of inorganic chemistry, materials chemistry, or mineralization processes. Experience with characterization methods for inorganic materials. Experience in scientific writing, including scientific manuscripts, research proposals or grant applications, posters, and oral presentations. Experience working in interdisciplinary research environments encompassing computational biology, protein engineering, and materials science. What We Offer Lund University is a state authority, which means you receive special benefits, generous vacation, and a favorable occupational pension. Our facilities include advanced instrumentation for protein production, purification, and characterization, including ÄKTA chromatography systems with size exclusion chromatography (SEC), autosamplers and fraction collectors for 96-well plates, bench-top flow cytometry and cell sorting (FACS), gloveboxes for air-sensitive experiments, surface plasmon resonance (SPR), isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), advanced circular dichroism spectroscopy (CD), bioreactors, incubators, shake incubators, and laboratory automation for high-throughput experiments. You will also have access to a dedicated Linux-based GPU computing cluster for AI-driven protein design and machine learning, enabling development and application of modern computational methods in close combination with experimental validation.
