PhD Student / Candidate
Northeastern University
The Environmental Ecosystems Lab at Northeastern University, led by Dr. Ameet Pinto in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, is working on a Department of Energy grant titled "Process Optimization and Real-Time Control for Synergistic Microalgae Cultivation and Wastewater Treatment." The overarching goal of this work is to accelerate the commercialization of high productivity, mixed community microalgal treatment technologies for the synergistic treatment of wastewater and the production of biofuel feedstocks. We are seeking a Ph.D. student to support this work, specifically to adapt and train a low-cost monitoring system for real-time characterization of microbial community structure. A successful candidate will work closely with another Ph.D. student to improve the technology readiness level (TRL) of this platform for use in photobioreactor (PBR) and potentially open raceway ponds (ORPs). Candidates may have a prior research background in: computer vision and/or machine learning; optics; materials science; product development; systems biology; unicellular organism metabolism or fermentation; molecular biology; or bioinformatics. Candidates should also have an entrepreneurial spirit and excel in collaborative work environments. Ideally, a candidate would have interest in working in a startup environment immediately succeeding work on this project. Start date may be as early as January 2021 or as late as Summer/Fall 2021.
