Postdoctoral Researcher in Advanced Nanosensing

We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to join our interdisciplinary team at the VU Amsterdam. The successful candidate will contribute to the development of advanced nanosensing platforms for biomedical applications.

The project focuses on the design and development of novel label-free sensing techniques for nanoscale research. The researcher will work closely with our team to develop and optimize advanced microscopy and nanophotonics techniques for the characterization of nanodrugs and other biomedical applications.

The ideal candidate will have a strong background in experimental nanophotonics, all-optical sensing, or label-free microscopy. Experience with designing and building optical instrumentation, programming, and hardware-software interfacing is highly desirable.

We offer a fully funded one-year postdoctoral fellowship with ample room for personal development in a socially engaged organization. The salary is based on the UFO profile Researcher 4, and the exact amount depends on your education and experience.

The appointment will initially be for 1 year, subject to a positive evaluation, and will be extended for a total duration of 30 months. We also offer attractive fringe benefits and regulations, including a full-time 38-hour working week, holiday leave entitlement, and a wide range of sports facilities.

Our team is committed to research, valorisation, and training socially engaged citizens of the world. We are proud of our collegial working climate, characterized by committed staff, a pragmatic attitude, and engagement in the larger whole.

As a postdoctoral researcher, you will have the opportunity to work on a highly innovative project, develop your skills, and contribute to the advancement of nanosensing technologies. If you are excited about interdisciplinary research and have a passion for nanotechnology, we encourage you to apply.

  • Develop high-throughput nanosizing methods at the ultimate levels of sensitivity and accuracy
  • Apply these platforms to prominent nanometric drug vectors
  • Help transitioning our technology into a widely applicable and usable platform
  • Explore and implement biomolecularly resolved nanosizing technologies
