Open positions

Our lab will accept two master’s thesis students (local/ international/ Erasmus academic exchange).

The first project will focus on engineering of carotenoid pathway in non-conventional yeast Rhodotorula toruloides (as industrially important food colorants, pigments, pro-vitamins, and antioxidants).

The second project will focus on engineering of lipid metabolism in non-conventional yeast Rhodotorula toruloides (as industrially important macronutrients, essential fatty acids, biofuel, and industrial biopolymer components).
