Lab name 植物暨微生物學研究所 邱澗庚實驗室
Job Position 研究助理及博士後 Research Assistant and Postdoctoral Researcher
Responsibilities

參與微生物發育的跨領域研究。你會參與下列兩個主題之一:
Interdisciplinary research on the development of microbial systems. You will be involved in either of the following projects.

研究主題一:研究不同種類的酵母菌如何利用「反應擴散系統」,調控細胞內極性蛋白在時間和空間上的的動態分佈。這些極性蛋白在細胞內的分佈決定了細胞的極性,最終決定了細胞以哪個模式生長。

Topic 1: To elucidate the spatial temporal dynamics of the polarity proteins within single yeast cells using reaction-diffusion systems. How these polarity proteins distribute determines cell polarity modes and ultimately the growth modes of a single cell.

研究主題二:細菌不僅僅是以單細胞形式生長,也能形成多細胞的群落,稱作生物膜。生物膜的發育就如同多細胞胚胎發育一般,仰賴細胞依照特定紋路分化。我們在研究生物膜內各個單一細胞的分子時鐘,如何彼此溝通耦合,進而形成同步的紋路。
Topic 2: Bacteria are not exclusively single cell organisms. Rather, they form multicellular communities called biofilms. Biofilms develop using patterned cell differentiation, similar to embryogenesis. This project aims to elucidate how oscillators within individual bacteria couple with each other to form synchronized patterns collectively in a biofilm.

這兩個跨領域主題都牽涉到動態系統理論和分子細胞生物兩大領域間的對話。我們希望找到的人要至少在其中一個領域有完整的基礎知識及研究經驗,且願意與另一個領域的人討論與密切合作。取決於你過去受過的訓練,你的工作內容可能主要會是分子細胞生物學實驗與光學顯微鏡操作,或者是數學分析以及微分方程系統的模擬。

Both of these topics heavily rely on the crosstalk between Dynamic Systems Theory and Molecular Cell Biology. We are looking for people who are well-trained in one of these two fields and willing to work closely with a partner trained in the other field. Depending on your expertise, your responsibilities will be either predominantly Molecular genetics plus Live cell microscopy, or Mathematical analysis and simulations of differential systems.

Requirements 1. 生物科學相關科系學士畢業,或者物理/數學/工程相關背景畢業。
A bachelor degree on either Biological Sciences or Physics/Mathamatics/Bioengineering.
2. 願意學習跨領域的知識與思考模式
Willing to adopt to the knowledge and perspective from a different research discipline.
