PhD Researcher in Artificial Microswimmers: Unravelling 3D Real-Space Dynamics

2 weken geleden

Enschede, Overijssel, Nederland University of Twente Voltijd

We are seeking a highly motivated and curiosity-driven PhD researcher to join our team at the University of Twente, MESA+ Institute for Nanotechnology, to work on a fully funded PhD project in the field of active soft matter.

The primary objective of this project is to develop a unique experimental model system to better understand the dynamic self-organization of microorganisms in 3D using optical microscopy techniques. This project aims to increase our fundamental understanding of the dynamic self-organization of microorganisms in 3D and steer the development of valuable design rules, ultimately leading to the fabrication of smart micromachines for potential technological and biomedical applications.

The successful candidate will work in a dynamic, highly interdisciplinary environment, utilizing state-of-the-art equipment and facilities to further the understanding and applications of microswimmers. The PhD researcher will be part of a team of researchers working on various projects related to active soft matter and will have ample opportunities for collaboration and interaction with various academic and industrial partners.

The ideal candidate will have a Master's degree in applied Physics, Chemistry, Biophysics, or at the interface between Physics and Chemistry. Prior experience with experimental skills, ideally including optical microscope techniques and colloidal particle synthesis, is a valuable asset but not mandatory. Working knowledge or demonstrated practical programming experience in Python, ImageJ, and/or MATLAB is highly beneficial. Excellent written and oral communication skills in English are essential.

The PhD position is available immediately and offers a dynamic ecosystem with enthusiastic colleagues in a stimulating scientific environment. The PhD salary is € 2.770 in the first year, increasing to € 3.539 in the fourth year. The offer further involves a holiday allowance of 8% of the gross annual salary and a year-end bonus of 8.3%, a solid pension scheme, a minimum of 29-day holidays, and numerous professional and personal development programs.
