PhD Student- Inorganic Nanoparticles Group. ICN2 - Institut Català de Nanociència i Nanotecnologia

The Inorganic Nanoparticles Group focuses on the design and development of advanced functional inorganic nanoparticles for applications in biomedicine, and catalysis. We are offering a Ph.D. position for a candidate with a strong background in chemistry, aimed at developing new organic-inorganic materials for microembolization applications. The project is part of a larger aim in cooperation with Vall d Hebron University Hospital, UB and CIBER-BNN and ICN2 responsibility is to provide samples for therapeutical microembolization.

We seek a candidate with expertise in nanotechnology, materials science and organic chemistry. Previous experience in polymer science will be highly valued.

Main Tasks and responsibilities:

The researcher will be involved in all aspects and stages of the development and testing of new organic-inorganic materials for microembolization applications. The job functions include:

• Designing and synthesizing novel organic-inorganic materials.
• Developing and optimizing protocols for the synthesis and functionalization of various types of organic and inorganic nanoparticles.
• Testing the properties and performance of materials in relevant biomedical contexts in collaboration with team members: Hebron University Hospital, UB and CIBER-BNN. Candidate responsibility is to provide samples for therapeutical microembolization. The adequacy of the candidate has to be reflected in the capacity to synchronize with consortium partners 
• Documenting and analyzing experimental data, and preparing reports and presentations.
• Contributing to writing scientific publications.
• Participating in group meetings and presenting research findings.   

Deadline for applications: 15th September 2024
