PhD position for 1 + 3 yrs focusing on Cellular Imaging, University of Antwerp,Belgium
BIO IMAGING LAB, a small animal imaging group focusing on MRI and BLI with the following instruments:
Magnetic Resonance Imaging:
7T Pharmascan
9.4T BioSpec horizontal bore MRI system
7T 16cm Pharmascan (available end 2010)
Optical Imaging:
Bioluminescence camera
Fluorescence camera
As one of the forerunners in imaging research our group has a broad spectrum of interest. This position will be related to our expertise in Neurodegeneration and regeneration which includesresearch into:Neurogenesis Stem cell research Neuroplasticity
This position will be in close collaboration with the Electron Microscopy for Materials Science lab(EMAT). Here the following equipment will be available:
1 scanning electron microscope 1 dual beam FIB 6 transmission electron microscopes (TEM)
The most advanced TEM, will be of crucial importance for this project and is unique in Europe. The microscope is a double lens corrected instrument working at voltages between 50 and 300 kV and achieving a resolution of 50 pm. It also has a monochromator to lower the energy resolution to about 150 meV.
Job description : Combining small animal MRI using contrast agents and/or nanoparticles for stem cell research and nerve fiber tracing with advanced EM tools to simultaneously image cellular ultrastructure and localization of nanoparticles. The aim of this project is to get a better comprehension of the cell-nanoparticle interactions.
Profile : They are looking for a highly motivated scientist with a clear focus on research. The candidate should hold a Master in Biology, Biomedical Sciences, Bio Engineer is similar degree (M2 studentsca also apply).
