Keemia ja biotehnoloogia instituut

Supramolekulaarse keemia uurimisrühmas saab teha lõputöid järgmistes valdkondades:

• Jätkusuutlike meetoditega orgaaniliste molekulide süntees ja/või mehhanokeemiliste sünteesimeetodite välja töötamine

• Orgaaniliste ainete analüüs (kvantitatiivsete analüüsimeetodite välja töötamine HPLC-MS ja teiste meetoditega)

• Uute retseptormolekulide või molekulaarsete mahutite süntees (ise-organiseerumine)

• Supramolekulaarsete kompleksite omaduste uurimine

See on koostööprojekti raames METK Jõgeva instituudiga. Juhendajateks Signe Adamberg ja Kaarel Adamberg. 

See on seotud fermenteeritud toidu tarbimise küsitlusega, peamiselt andmetöötlus ja kirjatöö. Juhendajaks Signe Adamberg.

Bioengineering group (https://bioeng.taltech.ee/)

The project is devoted to metabolic engineering of non-conventional yeast R. toruloides to produce astaxanthin from beta-carotene. Student will do assembly of the construct with 2 genes responsible for conversion of beta-carotene into astaxanthin, then integrate the construct into R. toruloides and characterize obtained strains.

Communication language is English, however, if you can translate in Estonian for the website, it would be helpful.
 

Töö toimub koostöös AS Letofiniga.

Our lab will accept two master’s thesis students (local/ international/ Erasmus academic exchange). These thesis projects combine aspects of chemistry, chemical engineering, materials science, and biology to develop engineered living materials for biochemical production. The first project envisions the fabrication of functional living materials, while the second project focuses on the design and application of flow bioreactors.

Background Reading Material: 

1. Physical confinement impacts cellular phenotypes within living materials
2. Cell‐laden hydrogels for multikingdom 3D printing
3. Metabolism control in 3D-printed living materials improves fermentation
4. The role of polymer mechanochemistry in responsive materials and additive manufacturing
5. Engineered living materials for sustainability

The thesis projects will require two semesters for completion. We will consider students having a materials science, chemistry, biology, polymer science, chemical engineering, food technology, biotechnology, or an interdisciplinary background. 

We will evaluate applications on a rolling basis. The accepted students will work at the BioEnginering Lab with Henrique SDR Hamacek, Ph.D. student, and Dr. Rahul Kumar, Senior Research at TalTech.

If interested in more information about either project or joining our lab, please contact Henrique with your brief background information at henrique.sepulveda@taltech.ee
