PhD Position in Radiochemistry: Design, Synthesize, Characterize, and Fabricate a Novel Radionuclide Generator-
**_Challenge:_**_ Create and evaluate a new radionuclide generator._**
**_Change: Enable on-site and on-demand supply of short-lived radionuclides._**
**_Impact: Support hospitals in delivering effective radionuclide therapy._**
Job description
Radionuclide therapy (RNT) is a treatment for metastasized cancer in which radionuclides emitting radiation are used to kill tumor cells. Different radionuclides can be used among which 166Ho. This particular radionuclide has a relatively short-life, which makes supply to hospitals challenging. In this project, we aim at developing a 166Dy/166Ho radionuclide generator which will supply hospitals with 166Ho on site and on demand. This project is part of a large NWO (Dutch Research Council) funded consortium "UNRANU: UNderstanding the RAdiobiology of therapeutic medical radioNUclides". The project aims to unravel the radiobiological effects of different radioisotopes. You will collaborate with many stake holders from academia, industry and society (e.g. Erasmus MC, Radboudumc, Delft University of Technology, NRG|PALLAS, AlfaRim Medical, HUB Organoids MILabs, Quirem Medical, Radboud Translational Medicine B.V., Siemens Healthineers, TerThera b.v., URENCO Nederland, Von Gahlen, VSL National Metrology Institute, RIVM National Institute for Public Health and the Environment, Wetenschapsknooppunt Radboud Universiteit).
In this project you will work on the development of a 166Dy/166Ho generator by combining concepts from different fields including nanotechnology (synthesizing dysprosium-based nanomaterials) and radiochemistry (radiochemical separation to selectively extract Ho-166). In addition to creating the new generator you will assess whether the produced Ho-166 conforms to the European pharmacopeia standards for clinical use. The research will be highly multidisciplinary, including all aspects of designing, synthesizing, characterizing, and fabricating the novel radionuclide generator in close collaboration with industry leaders and university hospitals.
**Requirements**:
We are looking for an enthusiastic PhD student who
- has an MSc in a relevant field, such as chemical engineering, physical chemistry, inorganic or coordination chemistry, radiochemistry, nuclear chemistry or similar
- combines creativity with a sound academic attitude;
- has excellent experimental skills;
- has excellent communication skills in English, both in writing and speaking;
- is motivated to work in a multidisciplinary team;
- is a good team-player and able to work in a collaborative environment.
