Skills/Qualifications

• We seek an open‑minded, academically driven Post-doctoral Researcher with:
• • A PhD (or equivalent) in Physics, Chemistry, Biophysics, or a closely related field.
• • A strong research interest in the physics, characterization, and applications of nanostructures.
• • Excellent command of English and well‑developed collaborative competencies, including time management, critical thinking, and independent problem solving.
• • Documented experience in a research environment involving materials science, polymer science, nanomaterials, or biophysics.
• • Proven ability in scientific writing, including contributions to project proposals, manuscripts, and technical reports.
• • Experience with student supervision, mentoring, or laboratory training, demonstrating the capacity to support junior researchers.
• • Ability to work independently while contributing effectively to a multidisciplinary research team.

Specific Requirements

• • Experience in the synthesis and characterization of photohermally active MoOx nanoparticles, using methods such as liquid phase exfoliation, chemical reduction, and microwave assisted non aqueous sol-gel synthesis.
• • Knowledge of applying functionalization techniques to modulate the pH‑responsive properties of MoOx and to shield these properties from interference by the surrounding medium.
• • A publication record demonstrating the candidate’s contributions to the synthesis, functionalization, and photothermal evaluation of MoOx‑based nanomaterials, including their application across different cell culture models.
• • Proficiency in performing and analyzing AFM, Confocal Raman Microscopy, FTIR, Ellipsometry, UV-Vis spectrophotometry, label-free CRM of cells.
• • Proficiency in the analysis and interpretation of TEM, SEM, XPS, and XRD data.
• • Practical experience in performing and analyzing near‑field nanoscopy (sSNOM/nanoFTIR) and/or AFM Force Spectroscopy measurements.
• • Practical experience in handling and maintaining cell cultures.

Benefits

• • Become part of a supportive and stimulating interdisciplinary team of physicists, chemists and biologists developing next-generation cancer diagnosis and treatment systems.
• • Participate in diverse research projects within the framework of multiple international projects with partners in France, Austria, Spain, Poland, and beyond.
• • Benefit from state-of-the-art equipment, facilities and capabilities.
• We offer opportunities for personal growth, professional development, international networking, research stays at partner institutions.
