Eligibility/Qualification–
You have a strong background in biophysics and fluorescence approaches, and a passion for interdisciplinary projects. Ideally, you have experience in quantitative image analysis and/or advanced skills in experimental and numerical modeling of nanophotonic systems. Experience in live-cell imaging is desired, however not a prerequisite. A good command of English is mandatory as you will be working in an international team.
Female scientists are particularly encouraged to apply. Disabled applicants will be preferentially considered in case of equivalent qualification.
Job/Position Description-
The Rudolf Virchow Center / Research Center for Integrative and Translational Bioimaging of the University of Würzburg offers at the earliest possible date a position as Postdoc/PhD Student (f/m/d) Position (Nanophotonics / Biophysics) in the field of high-resolution fluorescence imaging.
In this cross-disciplinary approach we combine high-resolution concepts of fluorescence microscopy with tricks from material sciences. Our approach involves designing and nanofabricating biocompatible nanostructured microscopy cover glasses for live cell applications that give rise to fundamentally new optical properties and the manipulation of light for super-resolution imaging. The project involves modelling and fabrication of biocompatible metal-dielectric coatings as well as advanced fluorescence imaging. The project particularly requires enthusiasm for biomolecular sciences and high-resolution microscopy.
What we offer:
We offer a three-year position at the Rudolf Virchow Center of the University of Würzburg, which comes with a competitive TV-L salary. The position will be initially funded for one year and extended if the evaluation is positive. The earliest start date is March 2021. The successful doctoral applicant will enroll in the Graduate School for Life Sciences (GSLS) in Würzburg and benefit from its extensive transferable skills program, travel funds and administrative support.
You will have access to both national and public-service pension schemes (VBL), health care, and 30 days of holiday entitlement in addition to 13 annual public holidays in Bavaria. Our Welcome Center supports international candidates in finding accommodation as well as administrative matters – and the University of Würzburg offers support for researchers with children, including flexible working hours and childcare.
