Helicobacter pylori is a bacterium that chronically colonizes the stomach of almost half the world’s population and that can cause ulcers and gastric cancer. H. pylori’s resistance to antibiotics is rapidly increasing and more knowledge is needed in terms of virulence and colonization mechanisms and the bacterial interaction with the gastric mucosa. The group of Kaisa Thorell is studying H. pylori and host-microbe interaction focusing on bioinformatic analysis of bacterial omics data. We study large datasets of for example whole genome sequences of bacteria from different parts of the world and with different level of disease association and also work with characterization of bacterial isolates and their interaction with human cells using RNA-seq, proteomics, glycomics, and other large scale data analyses. Dr Thorell was recently appointed as a fellow within the Swedish Data Driven Life Science (DDLS) program and the project will be performed within the DDLS framework.

The SciLifeLab and Wallenberg National Program for Data-Driven Life Science (DDLS) is a 12-year initiative that focuses on data- driven research, within fields essential for improving the people ́s lives, detecting and treating diseases, protecting biodiversity and creating sustainability. The programme will train the next generation of life scientists and create a strong computational and data science base. The program aims to strengthen national collaborations between universities, bridge the research communities of life sciences and data sciences, and create partnerships with industry, healthcare and other national and international actors.

Dr. Phan’s research interest has been focused on the development and application of multimodal imaging using mass spectrometry imaging, fluorescence microscopy, and electron microscopy to cells and neurobiology, particularly the study of the structural effects of psychostimulant drugs on the brain chemistry, the molecular turnover of nerve cells and the brains in relation to neurogenesis and neurodegeneration. Her current interest is the correlation of secondary ion mass spectrometry (nanoSIMS, ToF-SIMS), super-resolution fluorescence microscopy (STED), and electron microscopy to study the structural and functional relationship between cellular lipids and proteins at subcellular and molecular levels. She is also working to develop labeling probes for specific targeted bioimaging using these combined modalities.

The subject of the PhD position is development of a multiple correlative nanoscale imaging allowing the correlation of organization and turnover of proteins and molecular lipids, localization of protein complexes and organelles, and cellular morphology at the subcellular level. The method is then applied to study the molecular and organelle turnover in neuronal stem cells during the cell differentiation. The goals are to obtain multiple properties of the same cell sample with a subcellular precision across different imaging techniques, and to understand the molecular regulation during neuronal stem cell differentiation and proliferation.

General information about being a doctoral student at the University of Gothenburg can be found on the university's doctoral student pages.

https://medarbetarportalen.gu.se/doktorand/?languageId=100001&skipSSOCheck=true

Duties 

The PhD student will take courses to fulfill the requirement of the PhD programme, and work on research projects to combine STED super-resolution microscopy, mass spectrometry imaging (nanoSIMS, ToF-SIMS), and electron microscopy to study the molecular and organelle turnover in neural stem cells at a subcellular level. This will be correlated with neuronal activity of the neuronal cells in collaboration with a parallel project within the group. The correlative imaging method will be applied to determine the molecular organization and turnover in neuronal stem cells during the cell differentiation into a specific neuronal cell type.

The student will be trained in imaging technologies (STED, ToF-SIMS, NanoSIMS, electron microscopy) and cell culture to perform the projects. The student will perform pulse and chase method using isotopic precursors of proteins, lipids on progenitor cells and differentiated neuronal cells to track the dynamic changes in the molecular synthesis, replacement and degradation at the organelle level. Sample preparation will be optimized to preserve chemical and morphological structures of the cells, as well as to ensure the samples compatible to all imaging modalities. Correlation procedure of multimodal imaging will also be optimized. The student will then use statistical methods to analyze, interprete data and present results.

The student will also involve in the development and application of new labeling probes for multimodal imaging of stem cells in collaboration with other colleagues.
