[Job] PhD Position 2024-2027 – Electroenzymatic Biosensor for H2 Detection

Bioenergetics and Protein Engineering (BIP), CNRS, Aix-Marseille Univ

Join our dedicated team at the CNRS and Aix-Marseille University to undertake groundbreaking research on hydrogen detection technologies, crucial for sustainable energy solutions. This PhD position offers the opportunity to design and develop a state-of-the-art electroenzymatic biosensor for hydrogen (H2) detection, addressing the urgent need for safe hydrogen storage and utilization.

Research Context:

With the pressing challenge of climate change, the development of CO2-neutral energy sources is vital. Hydrogen is a promising sustainable energy carrier, but its properties require advanced detection systems for safe storage and handling. Our research focuses on the use of Ni-Fe hydrogenase from Aquifex aeolicus for the development of sensitive, miniaturized biosensors capable of detecting hydrogen in various environmental conditions.
