Eindhoven, Nederland TU Eindhoven Voltijd

**Job description**:
The Bio-organic chemistry group at Eindhoven University of Technology has a longstanding tradition in the construction of polymer-based nanomedicines. The main objective of DC8 will be to construct polymer-based nanoparticles with a motor function that can actively deliver nucleic acid therapeutics into living cells. DC8 will be working on the preparation of the polymer building blocks, their self-assembly into bowl-shaped vesicles with motile features and their loading with therapeutic cargo. Furthermore, cell uptake experiments will be undertaken. This project will also include secondments at University of Ghent and Warwick University.
