Offer Description

The Nanomedicine Lab aims to generate and disseminate fundamental knowledge in the field of nanomedicine by bringing together nanotechnology, bioengineering, pharmacology and their translation to advanced, clinically-relevant therapeutics and diagnostics.

Our mission is to pioneer the cutting-edge and emerging discipline of nanomedicine by bringing advanced materials and nanoscale platforms to the clinic.

The main lines of research in Nanomedicine Lab include:

• Nanomaterials as transport systems for therapeutic and diagnostic applications against cancer and neurodegenerative disease.
• Translation of advanced materials to the clinic.
• Discovery of novel liposome and vesicle systems to be used as components of therapeutics in oncology and neurology.
• Neurotechnology based on flexible, thin-film technologies for therapeutic applications in oncology and neurology.

The Nanomedicine Lab has been awarded one of the prestigious ERC Synergy Grants in collaboration with three other research institutions across Europe and has strong collaborative links and projects with the Center for Nanotechnology in Medicine at the Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health of The University of Manchester in the United Kingdom.

• Education:Master's degree in Physics, Materials Science, Nanoscience, or a closely related field.
• Knowledge:Solid background in solid-state physics.
• Professional Experience:Previous experience in one or more of the following areas would be valued, although it is not essential:
  • Two-dimensional materials and van der Waals heterostructures.
  • Nanofabrication or cleanroom techniques.
  • Electrical, quantum-transport, or magnetotransport measurements.
  • Cryogenic experimental techniques.
  • Spintronics, magnetism, or quantum metrology.
  • Raman spectroscopy or related material-characterization techniques.
  • Scientific programming and data analysis.
