PhD Opportunity in Computational Nanoplastic Research
2 maanden geleden
Overview of the Role
This research initiative is centered on the creation and implementation of an advanced computational framework aimed at forecasting the effects of nanoplastics on protein functionality. Your responsibilities will include:
• Automating the discovery of descriptors for chemical and conformational transitions in proteins that interact with nanoplastics;
• Executing machine learning-enhanced free-energy computations;
• Developing predictive models to efficiently identify significant nanoplastic-induced alterations in a protein's free-energy landscape;
• Utilizing the framework across various nanoplastics and proteins to provide actionable insights for healthcare institutions, policymakers, and plastic manufacturers.
Key Responsibilities:
• Engage in independent research within the Computational Soft Matter Lab;
• Collaborate with the Computational Chemistry team at HIMS, the Computational Science Lab at IvI, and experimental groups at HIMS, the Institute of Physics (IoP), and the Amsterdam University Medical Center (UMC);
• Publish and disseminate your findings within the project and on global scientific platforms, including peer-reviewed journals, books, and conferences;
• Assist in supervising BSc/MSc student projects;
• Participate in the educational activities of the department.
Candidate Profile
• A Master’s degree in a scientific discipline, ideally in physics, engineering physics, chemistry, chemical engineering, materials science, or computational science with a focus on natural sciences;
• A solid foundation in physics, chemistry, and/or computational science;
• Preferred experience in molecular simulation;
• Preferred experience in machine learning;
• Proficient programming skills;
• Strong communication abilities in both oral and written English;
• High initiative and effective time management skills;
• Enthusiasm for collaborating with students, PhD candidates, and postdoctoral researchers in related projects and research groups both within and outside the Netherlands.
Our Offer
A temporary contract for 38 hours per week for a duration of 4 years (the initial contract will be for a period of 18 months, extendable upon satisfactory evaluation). This position is expected to culminate in a dissertation (PhD thesis). An educational plan will be established that includes participation in courses and (international) meetings. Additionally, you will be expected to assist in teaching undergraduate and master’s students.
The gross monthly salary, based on 38 hours per week and dependent on relevant experience, ranges between €2,000 and €3,000. The university also provides a comprehensive package of secondary benefits, including an 8% holiday allowance and a year-end bonus of 8.3%. The applicable UFO profile name and level will be determined.

In addition to the salary and a dynamic working environment at Science Park, we offer multiple fringe benefits:
• Annual holiday hours (based on full-time) and additional holidays between Christmas and New Year;
• Access to various courses offered by our Teaching and Learning Centre;
• A complete educational program for PhD candidates;
• Multiple courses on leadership for academic staff;
• Various courses on time management, stress management, and an online learning platform with numerous courses;
• 7 weeks of parental leave (partner leave) with full salary;
• Partially paid parental leave;
• The option to establish a home office;
• A pension plan with ABP, where the university covers two-thirds of the contribution;
• Opportunities to enroll in Dutch language courses.
