Postdoctoral position: LAUNCHPAD FET EU project 819 views

The Institute of Photonic Sciences (ICFO) is offering a Postdoctoral Position in the LAUNCHPAD FET EU project: Module for Aberration Correction and Fast Volumetric Imaging in a Light Sheet Fluorescence Microscope (MAFIn). The project is available in the Super resolution light microscopy and nanoscopy (SLN) facility led by Dr. Pablo Loza-Alvarez.

About the project:
  • The goal of the MAFIn project is to develop a module for aberration correction and fast volumetric imaging to be adapted to a LSFM, either to current commercial systems or to custom-made setups in research labs, and easy to use by non-experts in life sciences applications.
  • This, unique MAFIn prototype will be able to observe the fast cellular and intracellular dynamics that occur in biological samples in 3D with high resolutions.

Requirements:

  • Candidates must hold an internationally recognized PhD equivalent degree (or evidence of its completion in the nearest future) preferably in Physics, Engineering or similar.
  • The candidate should have a strong background in experimental optics, microscopy, instrumentation and control electronics, photonics and biomedical applications.
  • The candidate is expected to be excited to build a fast 3D LSFM capable of measuring fast dynamic processes in different biological samples.
  • Applicant must demonstrate skills in: Experimental optics and photonics; Instrumentation and control; Experience in microscopy; Design and control of imaging setups.

Applications:

Apply online with the following:

  • Presentation letter with a declaration of interest,
  • Curriculum Vitae, including contact details,
  • The contact e-mail of two potential referees.
  • Candidates should be willing to be contacted by phone during the selection process.
