QUALIFICATIONS
We are looking for ambitious and highly motivated candidates with a PhD in marine microbial ecology, or a related field. Fluency in written and spoken English is a requirement, as well as excellent writing skills demonstrated by the publication record. A successful candidate has good analytical skills e.g. in molecular community analyses (bioinformatics), aquatic microbial ecology, and cultivation of bacteria and phytoplankton. Experience with VOC measurements using GC-MS or PTR-MS techniques and multivariate statistics is an asset along with experience of field and experimental work. The candidate can take decisions independently, but she/he is also comfortable working in teams and has a collaborative mindset.
For enquiries about the position, please contact Professor Lasse Riemann (lriemann@bio.ku.dk; +45 51423935) or Professor Riikka Rinnan (riikkar@bio.ku.dk; +45 51827039).

The University wishes our staff to reflect the diversity of society and thus welcomes applications from all qualified candidates regardless of personal background.
Responsibilities:
The post doc will concern fluxes of volatiles associated with marine bacterioplankton and phytoplankton and focus particularly on the importance of bacterioplankton and phytoplankton interactions for VOC production/emission. The work will encompass field and experimental work as well as cultivation applying molecular analyses of bacterial and phytoplankton community composition, plankton activity measurements, and measurements of VOCs. The successful candidate will be responsible for lead-writing and co-authoring scientific publications. The candidate will also have the opportunity to supervise MSc students.
