Descrizione del lavoro

The Department of Physics at the University of Oslo invites applications for a PhD Research Fellow in multi-modal microscopy and tomography of virus-infected organoids. The role centers on developing photonic chip-based super-resolution microscopy and quantitative phase tomography to study HIV-1 and VEEV infections in organoid models.

The candidate will perform correlative imaging with advanced data analysis, including AI-assisted segmentation, and collaborate across an EU project network.

Competenze

• Master’s degree or equivalent in physics or engineering or related field in biomedical engineering and biophysics.
• Solid hands-on experience with experimental optical instrumentation and microscopy systems.
• Strong background in image analysis using Python or MATLAB.
• Interest in multidisciplinary, international research collaboration.

Mansioni

• Develop and adapt a multi-modal optical microscopy platform focusing on photonic chip-based super-resolution and optical diffraction tomography.
• Perform correlative fluorescence microscopy with 3D quantitative phase tomography.
• Generate datasets for analysis of viral infections in organoid models.
• Apply AI-assisted segmentation and classification to image data.
• Collaborate with other doctoral candidates and partner institutions.
