PhD Position Ultrafast Cryo-EM/ET Sample Preparation - Delft, Nederland - Delft University of Technology
Beschrijving
Challenge: Ultrafast imaging of biomolecular processes at high resolution. Change: Combining fluorescence microscopy and cryo-EM/ET. Impact: Driving a profound understanding of life processes at the molecular scale. Are you interested to combine physics, engineering, and molecular biology to gain insight into how life works at the nanoscale? To learn how the machinery of life operates at the molecular scale, we need to understand dynamic structural changes underlying many essential biomolecular processes in the cell. This requires new experimental methods, as current technology only facilitates static imaging. As a PhD student at TU Delft, you will develop the methods to bring about a step change in dynamic imaging of biomolecular processes in reconstituted systems and in cells. You will collaborate with leading scientists and help drive correlative high-resolution imaging at ultrafast timescales. You will conduct research within the scope of a dedicated TU Delft-Utrecht University consortium, working closely with fellow researchers at the Marileen Dogterom and Anna Akhmanova Labs. In your research you will focus on method development, in which you will combine fluorescence microscopy and cryogenic electron microscopy/tomography for correlative snapshot imaging of dynamic biomolecular systems. Having designed and built the experimental setup, you will apply it to samples prepared by colleagues in the consortium and use cryo-ET imaging to map and understand structural transitions and stabilisation at microtubule ends. Your home base will be the Jakobi Lab at TU Delft | Kavli Institute of Nanoscience. We are a multidisciplinary and internationally diverse team of scientists with backgrounds ranging from molecular biology and physics to mechanical engineering. Our drive is to push boundaries in our aim to visualise molecular processes at the highest possible resolution. As part of the Department of Bionanoscience and the Kavli Institute of Nanoscience, we enjoy access to state-of-the-art infrastructure for nanofabrication, biochemistry, imaging, and high-performance computing. We are also committed to world-class education, to which you will contribute, coaching undergraduate and graduate students. Fostering a friendly, non-hierarchical, and collaborative atmosphere, we support each other by exchanging ideas and knowledge in the pursuit of our ambitious goals. And you will get all the support and training you need for your personal and professional growth.Job description
