Applications are invited from suitably qualified candidates for a full time, fixed term position as a Postdoctoral researcher with Microbiology/Ryan institute at the University of Galway, Ireland.

This position is funded by the Global Methane Hub and is available from May 2026 to contract end date of May 2028.

Understanding and manipulating electron flow is in the rumen is critically important to reducing methane emissions from ruminants. The Global Methane Hub's (GMH) Enteric Fermentation Accelerator is funding a groundbreaking study on advancing the science behind methane production, electron flow, and its connection to animal productivity. Specifically in this role the potential contribution of Direct Interspecies Electron Transfer (DIET) to methane formation in the rumen will be investigated using approaches adopted from the field of environmental engineering in combination with rumen microbiology. The effects of conductive additives on methane production in in vitro experiments will help identify putative electroactive microbial taxa. In addition, rumen microbial communities will be inoculated into microbial fuel cells and microbial electrosynthesis cells to enrich electron donating and electron accepting microorganisms. Subsequently, novel isolation procedures will be used to isolate electroactive organisms in order to study them further in pure and co-culture. The work will contribute to this wider programme by determining whether direct interspecies electron transfer contributes to methane formation using conductive additives, microbial electrochemical technologies and via isolation and characterisation of direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET)-capable microbes.
