Postdoc position for the analysis of surfactome of NPs and EVs by bioinformatics, artificial ingellice and multiomics.

The Aragon Nanoscience and Materials Institute (INMA) is opening a call for a post-doctoral position in the field of biomedicine, nanomedicine and bioinformatics, as part of the SEVEN project, funded by an ERC Starting Grant from the European Research Council. This is a full-time contract of up to 3 years' duration, based in Zaragoza, Spain.

The SEVEN project investigates how the "biomolecular corona" that forms around extracellular vesicles (EVs) — small natural particles that act as biological messengers — determines their ability to specifically target metastatic tissue. Despite years of effort, EV-based therapies have yet to reach clinical practice, largely because little is known about how these vesicles behave in real biological environments. SEVEN aims to change this: by characterising the identity and surface topography of this biomolecular corona, the project seeks to design new therapeutic vectors — nanoparticle-loaded EVs — capable of accumulating far more effectively in metastasis target tissues.

The successful candidate will be responsible for proteomic analysis of the NP and EV surface (mass spectrometry data generation, and protein identification and quantification), bioinformatic analysis of differential expression and modelling of the soft and hard components of the corona, as well as applying artificial intelligence to NP and EV surfactome analysis.

Candidates must hold a PhD in Biotechnology, Bioinformatics or Nanotechnology, along with demonstrated expertise in proteomics, bioinformatics and artificial intelligence. Good English communication skills are essential.

Interested candidates should submit their application, together with a motivation letter, to María Sancho Albero ([email protected]). This is a pre-announcement: the official call is still pending publication and is expected in the second half of August 2026.
