**Function description**: - The labs of Alan Gerber (Amsterdam UMC - Location VUmc) and Fred van Leeuwen (Netherlands Cancer Institute, NKI) are teaming up to crack the code of gene regulation of tRNA genes. In a project supported by ZonMW, we will address how the hundreds of tRNA genes in our genome are regulated in their own unique way in response to...

**Jouw functie**: More than a quarter of global greenhouse gas emissions come from the food production chain. Replacing animal proteins in our diets with plant-based alternatives drastically reduces these emissions. Plant-based diets are also healthier. However, current plant-based alternatives to dairy and meat do not have the desired taste, texture or...

**Work Activities**: Did you know high-energy electrons can serve as efficient sources of optical excitation of matter? Our group has developed cathodoluminescence microscopy, in which we use 1-30 keV electrons in a scanning electron microscope (SEM) to excite nanomaterials. The oscillating electric field carried by the electron serves as a broadband (0-30...

This project focuses on developing sustainable materials and processes to further reduce the environmental impact of Si heterojunction (SHTJ) cells without hampering efficiency, by using thinner wafers and avoid the use of scarce metals, like indium and silver.Work ActivitiesEco-design, or sustainable design, plays a crucial role in the development of solar...

Jouw functie Immuuntherapie heeft de behandeling van veel kankersoorten in korte tijd veranderd. Recent onderzoek van onze groep heeft getoond dat behandeling met immuuntherapie zeer effectief is bij de meerderheid van de patiënten met vroegstadium darmkanker met grotere kans op genezing. In klinische een aanpalende translationele studies onderzoeken we...

**PhD student: Single-molecule biophysics of the ubiquitin motor Cdc48/p97**: **Work Activities**: **Questions -** Ubiquitin is central to a broadly important regulatory system within cells, which controls anything from protein degradation to membrane remodeling and DNA replication regulation. Cdc48 performs these tasks by disassembling protein complexes,...

**PhD-student: Nonlinear metaphotonics for UV semiconductor metrology**: **Work Activities**: How do you design optical metasurfaces that efficiently radiate UV light by nonlinear frequency conversion? How do the geometry of meta-atoms and their arrangement in the metasurface translate into beam structuring, i.e., control over the amplitude, phase and...

Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica (CWI) has vacancies in the Machine Learning research group for two enthusiastic talented **PhD students (m/v/x)** within Peter Grünwald’s ERC Advanced Grant Project FLEX (FLEXible Statistical Inference). **Job description**: Most statistical methods require that all aspects of data collection and inference are determined...

We are seeking a highly motivated PhD student to join our research team at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. The successful candidate will be working on the NWO-funded project 'Simulating Globalisation in the Roman Empire'.This project focuses on the Dutch part of the Lower Rhine region, which played a crucial role in protecting the Empire's military and...

**PhD-student: Eco-design of thin Si PV**: **Work Activities**: Eco-design, or sustainable design, plays a crucial role in the development of solar cells by minimizing environmental impact through use of resources, energy conservation and emissions. In Si heterojunction (SHTJ) cells, reducing the silicon wafer thickness enables more active solar cell area...

**PhD student: The real-time dynamics of single ribosomes**: **Work Activities**: **Questions -** According to textbooks, ribosomes work individually to produce proteins. However, recent insights from our lab and others show multiple ribosomes cooperate as they translate mRNA. This cooperation may well be essential to produce multi-protein complexes...
