Preliminary Topic: Medically-relevant bacteria electrogenicity as a tool for its metabolic activity monitoring and drug assessment in biofilms
Short Description of the Internship Work: During the internship, students will learn basic electrochemical analysis techniques that enable them to directly assess biofilm formation on conductive electrodes and investigate the dependence of their metabolic activity on current and potential values. Additionally, participants will evaluate the potential of bacterial electrogenicity as a tool for assessing drugs in biofilms.
Qualification Requirements (Degree): BSc MSc
Application Deadline: 2025-12-31
Additional Comments: The position is open to II-III-year undergraduate and I-year graduate students.
