PhD Position in Nanocarriers as Precision Therapeutics (Chemistry, Medicine, Biology)

The Chair of Inorganic and Materials Chemistry at the University of Cologne, Germany, led by Professor Sanjay Mathur, is offering an interdisciplinary PhD position focused on the development of nanocarriers as precision therapeutics. This research opportunity lies at the intersection of chemistry, biology, and medicine, with a particular emphasis on precursor synthesis and functional nanomaterials for energy and biomedical applications. The successful candidate will work on the development of chemically engineered nanocarriers designed for stimuli-responsive active and passive targeting of sites of interest within biological environments. The project is conducted in collaboration with the University Hospital Cologne and provides hands-on laboratory experience, close supervision, and access to state-of-the-art research infrastructure. Applicants should be enthusiastic about experimental lab work and interdisciplinary research. The position is ideal for those interested in solving scientific questions related to nanomaterials, biomedical engineering, and therapeutic applications. The research group is international and collaborative, offering a dynamic environment for scientific growth. For more information, candidates are encouraged to visit the academic page of Prof. Dr. Sanjay Mathur or contact him directly via email. The announcement does not specify funding details or application deadlines, but highlights the opportunity to work in a cutting-edge research setting at the University of Cologne. Key academic keywords include nanocarriers, precision therapeutics, chemistry, biology, medicine, biomedical applications, and functional nanomaterials. Interested applicants should have a background in these areas and a strong motivation for interdisciplinary research.
