Functie-inhoud

Are you ready to make a groundbreaking contribution to forensic science? As a PhD Candidate in our prestigious DaVinciQD 2.0 project, you'll have the opportunity to apply advanced Proteomics and Functionalized Nanoparticles for the Analysis of Traces. The results of your research will be used to develop a new tool for forensic researchers at crime scenes to determine the age of biological traces. Are you the innovative thinker we are looking for? Join our team

This is what you do as PhD Candidate

In this role, the doctoral candidate will apply advanced proteomics techniques to analyze the traces and investigate the temporal color changes that occur due to interactions with the nanoparticles. The candidate will also be responsible for identifying correlations between the color reactions and protein profiles within the traces and evaluating the influence of environmental factors on these processes.

As part of the DaVinciQD 2.0 project, funded by RAAK-PRO which is conducted in collaboration with Saxion Hogeschool, Police Academy and the Netherlands Forensic Institute. The candidate will engage in research focusing on the analysis of biological traces (fingerprints and blood stains), using proteomics. The research will focus on exploiting these differences between fresh and older traces, that can be made visible using functionalized fluorescent nanoparticles. Results of this research will be exploited to develop a new tool for the forensic researcher on the crime scene, in order to determine the age of biological traces on-site.

This is where you will work

At we explore future developments, look beyond our borders and disciplines and drive innovation. By doing this together we contribute to a smarter, safer and more sustainable world. We question how significant technological innovations are and how they can contribute to humanity, society and our planet.
