5 days ago


Oulu, North Ostrobothnia, Finland Karlstad University Full time

The University of Oulu is a multidisciplinary research university seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher to join our team. Our multidisciplinary project "Next Generation Molecular Sensing" aims to develop single molecule biosensors by integrating artificial cells, biological vesicles, molecular cell biology, plasmonic nanopores with AI data analysis.

The project is led by five professors from different faculties who have complementary expertise ranging from nanotechnology, biosensors, optics, microfluidics, molecular cell biology, and organoid technology. Assistant professor Jian-An Huang will be the main supervisor for biosensor fabrication and development in this call.

As a Postdoctoral Researcher, you will work on fabricating and characterizing plasmonic nanopore, nanotube biosensors on silicon nitride membranes and glass nanopipettes. You will also measure ion currents and Raman spectroscopy of biological samples on the biosensors. The fabrications will be based on published protocols and improved to fit the needs of the project.

About the Position

This is a fixed-term position for three years as of 01.04.2024 or as soon as possible thereafter. The salary will be based on the levels 5-6 of the demand level chart for teaching and research staff of Finnish universities. Starting gross salary will be approx. €3500-4000 per month (before taxes) depending on qualifications and experience.

We offer an exciting research project and excellent multidisciplinary research environment. You will work together with our multinational team and have access to state-of-the-art micro- and nanofabrication facilities, characterization facilities, and biological facilities.
