Overview: This project represents an exciting collaboration between the University of Edinburgh and the award-winning biotech startup CyanoCapture (www.cyanocapture.com) in Oxford. In this project, you will spearhead the commercial development of the highly productive cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp. PCC 11901. You will focus on improving our fundamental understanding of metabolism and growth in Syn11901, and will develop synthetic biology tools to progress Syn11901 as a bioengineering platform. Working closely with researchers at CyanoCapture, you will design and test engineered strains in their innovative photobioreactor design for capturing CO2 from flue gas.

概述：该项目代表了爱丁堡大学与牛津屡获殊荣的生物技术初创公司 CyanoCapture (www.cyanocapture.com) 之间令人兴奋的合作。在这个项目中，您将领导高产蓝藻聚球藻的商业开发。 PCC 11901。您将专注于提高我们对 Syn11901 代谢和生长的基本理解，并将开发合成生物学工具以将 Syn11901 发展为生物工程平台。您将与 CyanoCapture 的研究人员密切合作，在其创新的光生物反应器设计中设计和测试工程菌株，用于捕获烟气中的二氧化碳。
