About the role
This two-year fixed-term postdoctoral post in Cambridge's Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics focuses on nucleic acid computing: designing, building, and refining programmable DNA systems that recognize specific genomic sequences while preserving genetic privacy, converting molecular recognition events into engineered DNA outputs. The role is hands-on and experimental rather than routine, spanning synthetic biology, computational genomics, and information security, and requires a PhD in molecular biology, biochemistry, or a related field with demonstrated nucleic-acid engineering experience.
