Job description

  • You will be developing a platform for the detection of protein production and secretion in single cells. An example of application is to study antibody secretion in immune cells upon their activation
  • You will be optimizing recently established scanning nanopore microscope for specific detection of proteins in complex physiological solutions, addressing these open research challenges:
  • Specificity of the sensor towards selected proteins: Enhancing the contrast for specific proteins
  • Data analysis: Improving data analysis approaches for capturing more information from each individual protein
  • Sampling from single cells: Developing methods for better sampling from individual cells, and handling of small volume samples
  • You will be collaborating with colleagues from the machine learning domain to improve data analysis
  • You will be responsible for project meetings, reporting...
