PhD Student Position in Soft Condensed Matter and Biophysics Research
Kategori: Informasi Beasiswa PhD Student Position in Soft Condensed Matter and Biophysics Research (Switzerland)
A position of a Research Assistant leading to a PhD degree will be available in the area of soft condensed matter and biophysics.
We shall study structural and dynamic properties of concentrated protein solutions and mixtures as well as their dominating interaction forces, aggregation phenomena and phase transitions such as liquid-liquid phase separation and crystal and glass formation. Particular emphasis will be given to a special class of proteins, the so-called lens crystallins.
The lens proteins are particularly interesting and important as they are ideally suited for an attempt to use well defined and monodisperse proteins as model systems for colloids as well as because of their biological and medical relevance for cataract formation. Cataract is a gradual clouding of the eye lens, and a leading cause of blindness, worldwide. The main techniques used in this project will be optical microscopy, small-angle neutron (SANS) and X-ray (SAXS) as well as static and dynamic (SLS, DLS) light scattering.
In addition, the experimental program will be combined with Monte Carlo and Brownian dynamics computer simulations performed at IRRMA (Institut Romand de Recherche Numerique en Physique des Materiaux), a center of excellence in computational condensed matter physics located on the campus of the EPFL (Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne).
The project will be conducted at the University of Fribourg, Switzerland, in close collaboration with a European Marie Curie research training network. The PhD student will thus have the opportunity to collaborate with a European network of leading institutions and perform some of the experiments in different laboratories and large-scale research facilities.
