Job description:

Join us - we look forward to welcoming you to our Self-Organizing Soft Matter Research Group at Eindhoven University of Technology


We are seeking a highly motivated PhD Researcher with a passion for quantitative microscopy and physical chemistry of self-assembling materials to join our team to image the behavior of ice-interactive biomaterials on ice with single-molecule resolution.

The goal of your project is to develop and use state-of-the-art microscopy tools and quantitative image analysis approaches to discover the physical principles underpinning the activity of novel ice-interactive biomaterials and to tune their interaction with ice to modulate activity as desired.


Key Responsibilities:

  • Conduct highquality, curiositydriven, original, and independent research focusing on imaging of selfassembling and iceinteractive biomaterials
  • Collaborate with a multidisciplinary and international team of researchers
  • Present research findings at conferences and publish in toptier scientific journals

  • Passionate about microscopy and soft matter science, physical chemistry, (bio)physics
  • A solid background in advanced optical microscopy; e.g. quantitative fluorescence and/or superresolution microscopy
  • A solid background in quantitative imaging analysis and/or singlemolecule (bio)physics
  • A solid background in physical chemistry of materials, soft matter science, and/or (bio)physics
  • Excellent programming (e.g. Python, Matlab) and data analysis skills for processing and interpreting experimental data (e.g. single molecule tracks)
  • Experience with cryoTEM, crystallization, microfluidics, AIaccelerated data analysis, and/or cryobiology is preferred
  • Strong motivation to do excellent, original, fundamental research.
  • Independent and goaloriented researcher. Team player and able to work in a dynamic, interdisciplinary, and international context.
  • Fluent in spoken and written English. Excellent written and oral communication skills. Note that there is no Dutch language requirement.

Conditions of employment:
