PhD Opportunity in Single-Molecule Biophysics and Magnetic Tweezers at Structural Mechanobiology Lab S. N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences in

PhD opportunity in single-molecule biophysics at the Structural Mechanobiology Lab. Dr. Shubhasis Haldar, Associate Professor at the S. N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences, is recruiting motivated students for an open PhD position for the upcoming session.

The lab works on magnetic tweezers, single-molecule technologies, and structural mechanobiology to study force-regulated biological phenomena. Research themes mentioned include instrumentation, precision measurements, data analysis, mechanically regulated chaperoning activity, focal adhesion-mediated cellular mechanobiology, developmental mechanobiology, and therapeutic regulation of protein mechanics.

This opportunity is especially relevant for candidates interested in the interface of Biology, Physics, and Chemistry, with additional exposure to machine learning and computational biology in a multidisciplinary lab environment. The post also mentions that applicants for the PhD opening should have valid CSIR/UGC-NET JRF or GATE qualification in Biology or Chemistry.

Interested applicants are asked to notify the supervisor by email and also apply through the institute website. The lab website and LinkedIn profile are included in the post for more information.
