UCLouvain seeks to recruit
A full-time academic position in Biochemistry of Nutrition
**Main campus**: Louvain-la-Neuve
About us
UCLouvain is in the top 1% of universities worldwide. Founded in the heart of Europe in 1425, the university brings together 40,000 students and 6,000 staff members on 9 campuses in Brussels and Wallonia. Research and education activities are organised in 20 faculties, 23 research institutes, 5 learning centres and 18 libraries. UCLouvain also has two university hospitals.
UCLouvain is a major player in the transition to a sustainable society. The challenges of the ecological crisis are integrated into courses and the university develops numerous local projects (such as a university farm and sustainable campuses). As a digital university, UCLouvain is involved in open science and education, and trains academics in innovative teaching practices through its Louvain Learning Lab. Thanks to two science parks, the university’s research benefits from interaction with 250 companies and 3 incubators, which is fuelled further by being at the centre of a region driven by technological innovation.
UCLouvain has a long tradition of international collaborations for teaching and research through partnerships across the world. As a member of the Circle U. European University alliance, the university offers a unique opportunity to work in an environment of interconnected campuses across Europe (London, Paris, Berlin, Vienna, Pisa, Belgrade, Aarhus and Oslo).
The position to be filled will be attached to the Faculty of Bioscience Engineering (AGRO-Louvain) which is an internationally recognized bioengineering school committed to put living systems at the heart of engineering, and to the Louvain Institute of Biomolecular Science and Technology (LIBST), an ambitious life science research institute, investigating living systems through the prism of biochemistry and molecular and cell biology.
Post description
Within the Faculty of bioscience engineering (AGRO) and the Louvain Institute of Biomolecular Science and Technology (LIBST), Science and Technology Sector, this position will include the following teaching, research and community service duties:
Teaching
You will also be involved in mentoring student projects and trainees, mainly for students of the Master in bioengineering: agricultural sciences.
You will also be expected to supervise Master’s theses.
Research
You will develop your research activities, including the lead of research programmes, in the field of life sciences and particularly in a topic related to nutritional biochemistry.
This might involve research from metabolic, physiological or cell responses to food components, up to the conception of sustainable and innovative food, and the study of food impact on human or animal health. Research activities will possibly rely on available technological platforms such as the ones dedicated to imaging and microscopy, mass spectrometry, analytical chemistry, as well as the animal facilities (rodents and fishes), the university farms (which include a transdisciplinary centre for the study of food transformation and food transition) or the Clinical Investigation Center for Nutrition. Research activities will also possibly rely on collaborations with research teams of the "Earth and Life Institute" active in agro-food sciences.
You will be responsible for the supervision of PhD theses.
In addition
Once tenured, you will carry out various service activities and responsibilities within the institution, such as being a member of a programme committee or examination committee, or having management responsibilities within the faculty or research institute.
You will also contribute to serving society, particularly in the economic, social, cultural or development cooperation fields. Finally, you will ensure, through research and teaching activities, the university’s international visibility.

Experience
