2024-03-20国际联合博后招聘:基于污水靶向宏病毒组学的城市人类病毒研究
Postdoctoral Fellow: targeted metaviromics of wastewater for determining the human virome in cities.
项目依托中荷“污水宏病毒组学”合作,是荷兰代尔夫特理工大学/KWR水研究所(Gertjan Medema教授),中国科学院生态环境研究中心(刘刚研究员)、中国水环境集团(张璐晶副总裁)的联合项目。项目资助为期三年,入选者与中国科学院生态环境研究中心签订1-3年博士后合同,薪资参考荷兰博士后标准,预期开始时间为2024年夏天,本岗位即日起面向全球开放征集申请,遴选评审将于4月30日开始。
This is a China-Netherlands co-funded project on "metaviromics of wastewater". lt is a joint projectbetween Research Center for Eco-Environmental Sciences, Chinese Academy of Sciences (RCEES, ProfGang Liu), China Water Environment Group (CWE, vice president, Lujing Zhang), Delft University of Technology and KWR Water Research Institute TUDelft & KWR, Prof. Gertjan Medema). The project has funding for up to 3 years, and the postdoc can be contracted for 1-3 years in RCEEs, that wil host this position with standard Dutch postdoc salary. The proposed start date is Summer 2024. Review of applications will begin on Apr. 30, 2024 and will continue until the position is filled.
监测城市中人类病毒的赋存与变化对于了解病毒性疾病的暴发与传播至关重要。针对污水人类病毒监测,本项目将探索脊椎动物/人类病毒序列的靶向富集以及目标病毒的PCR检测。由于病毒序列关乎病毒的分子流行病学,本项目将探索一整套病毒物种、基因型的表征方法。基于此,项目拟招聘一位有相关背景的博士后,从事基于深度测序的深度宏病毒组学研究。
The monitoring of occurrence and concentration of human viruses in cities is crucial for understandingof viral disease circulation and emerging disease outbreaks. To monitor human viruses in wastewater, target enrichment of vertebrate/human virus sequences will be explored as well as PCR panels for selected human viruses. Since virus sequences are relevant to for molecular epidemiology of viruses, we would like to explore a suite of methods that is able to characterize virus species to genotypes. For this objective, we are seeking a motivated and talented postdoctoral fellow, using deep metaviromicsbased on deep sequencing.
中国水环境集团在中国22个省份遍布项目,总处理能力超过600万立方米/天。本项目将覆盖中国水环境集团的多个超大型城市污水系统,应用并评估上述污水宏病毒组学方法,检测城市污水系统中人类病毒(基因型)。应聘对象应熟悉宏病毒组学和生物信息学,热爱科研,满怀热情,必须具备生物安全、病毒监测以及通过水/污水系统进行病毒监测的专业背景,具有环境病毒学,尤其是污水病毒监测经历的候选人优先。项目的采样和测序工作将在中国进行,入选博后将在中国和荷兰进行研究,根据工作需要取决具体的时间分配。
China Water Environment Group (CWE) has projects in 22 provinces in China with a total capacity of more than 6 million m3 per day This project will cover wastewater systems operated by CWE in multiple (mega) cities in China and implementing and evaluating the suite of methods to detect the presence and abundance of humanvirus(genotypes)in wastewater of the cities. We are seeking for an excellent and ambitious researcher to join our team, with a background of metaviromics and bioinformatics in environmental virology, ideally in wastewater surveillance. The sampling and sequencing will be done in China, and the candidate will conduct research both in China and in the Netherlands, depending on where the research (methods) is available. Knowledge on viruses metaviromics, bioinformatics, biosafety, virus surveillance, including via wastewater, and watersystems is desirable.
