Calgary, Alberta, Canada Isme Microbes Full time
At the University of Calgary, the Microbial Markets Lab and the Applied Geochemistry Group have an
opening for a postdoctoral scholar. The position is for at least two years with potential for extension with a
preferred start date some time in 2023.
The ideal candidate combines experience in microbial ecology and metagenomics with expertise in
groundwater biogeochemistry. We are looking for a candidate with 0-4 years of experience after
completing their PhD.
The project investigates the natural and human causes of groundwater contamination with
fertilizer N and P, sulfate, selenium, manganese, arsenic and salts and potential remediation. Approaches
include multi-omics analyses of fresh groundwater samples to assess the potential for microbial
remediation as well as stable isotope probing of same groundwater samples. Further, long-term
mesocosm experiments will be set up to study the effect of selected contaminants on groundwater
quality and microbiomes.
The postdoc will join the Microbial Markets and Geomicrobiology (MMG) group at the University of
Calgary ). MMG is embedded in a multidisciplinary network of
geochemists, ecologists and microbiologists at the University of Calgary, Alberta Environment and
Protected Areas and other collaborating agencies.
The science is enabled by a large regional-scale historical groundwater dataset that is unique worldwide
and links microbial-community compositions to geochemistry across hundreds of samples collected in
the past 6 years [1]. Groundwater is a current frontier in biogeochemistry/microbial ecology with excellent
potential for groundbreaking discovery. Groundwater is also an existential resource for human well-being
under critical threat of climate change and over-exploitation.
Interested applicants should send a CV and cover letter to Prof
