International PhD Positions: PROHITS, a European MSCA Doctoral Network project, is offering 10 international PhD positions to develop prokaryote proteomics at high temperature for single cells. The project’s interdisciplinary focus involves experimental and computational approaches to unravel the proteome of prokaryotes at the single-cell level across various temperatures. The aim is to enhance our understanding of thermophile biology and guide the optimized design of cell factories.
