PhD Research Fellow in Soft Matter, Peptide-Membrane Interactions and Lipid Nanoparticles University of Oslo in Norway

Chemists are invited to a 1-year postdoctoral position at the Institut des Sciences Chimiques de Rennes (CNRS × Université de Rennes, France) on photoswitchable lanthanide complexes for next-generation bio-imaging . The project focuses on designing photochromic ligands , synthesizing lanthanide complexes , and studying NIR emission for super-resolution microscopy . This is a strong fit for candidates with a PhD in molecular chemistry and hands-on organic synthesis experience. The position is EUR...

Open PhD position in synthetic cell division , condensate endocytosis , membrane biophysics , and soft matter physics at the Max Planck Institute of Colloids and Interfaces in collaboration with the University of Potsdam through the IMPRS on Functional Material Design . The project uses patterned light from a spatial light modulator to confine illumination to micron-scale regions of giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs), a minimal cell model. The goal is to build a synthetic membrane platform that c...
