Aubervilliers, France Syensqo Temps plein

Syensqo is all about chemistry. We’re not just referring to chemical reactions here, but also to the magic that occurs when the brightest minds get to work together. This is where our true strength lies. In you. In your future colleagues and in all your differences. And of course, in your ideas to improve lives while preserving our planet’s beauty for the generations to come. Syensqo in collaboration with ESPCI at Paris will host one collaborative PhD project within the BIOMAC-BP consortium, funded by Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Doctoral Networks HORIZON-MSCA-2023. **Project background**: - The heavy use of pesticides and fertilizers in agriculture is crucial for the food supply. However, this practice leads to significant environmental and health issues, including poisoning, environmental degradation, and the development of insecticide resistance. EU policies and the UN Sustainable Development Goals advocate for safer, more sustainable alternatives like biopesticides. However, large-scale implementation of these alternatives faces challenges related to formulation and efficacy. - The BIOMAC-BP consortium addresses the issue of synthetic pesticide use by developing sustainable biopesticide formulations. Funded by Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Doctoral Networks HORIZON-MSCA-2023, the international consortium brings together experts from various scientific fields, including soft-matter physics, physical chemistry, chemical engineering, microbiology, biophysics and agricultural science, and combines industrial and academic perspectives. The project's main objective is to develop and optimize novel bio-sourced materials to incorporate bacteria capable of producing biopesticides, enhancing the benefits and sustainability of the formulations. This effort aims to reduce synthetic pesticide emissions, improve agricultural practices, and support a greener future for the chemical industry. **We are looking for**: **You will bring**: **Additional information**: - Location: Aubervilliers and Paris, FRANCE - Recruitment Terms: Start between February 2025 and September 2025 for a duration of 36 months. **Application Process**: - CV - Cover letter. - 3 Reference Contacts.
