Three PhD fellowships are available at the Center for Single (micro- and nano-) Particle Science and Engineering (SPSE), Department of Physics, Chemistry and Pharmacy in:

• Advanced Drug Formulation of Hydrophobic Nanoparticles
• Live Cell Imaging, Pathways and Cytotoxicity
• Micro-Pipette Manipulation of Micro-Droplets, Micro-Particles and Interfaces.

The PhD fellowships support our current focus on Anti-Cancer Drug Delivery. The positions are to be filled by 1 September 2014 or soon thereafter.

We are looking for highly talented, creative, and motivated candidates to join an interdisciplinary research centre concerned with experimental and theoretical research within the broad fields of Colloid and Surface Science, Micro-Nano-Science, and Cell Biology, with special applications in Anti-Cancer Drug Delivery.

Our main approach in these positions is to reverse engineering nature’s own hydrophobic delivery system – the Low Density lipoprotein (LDL) – and use that knowledge to help develop, characterize, and test new advanced drug formulations for anti-cancer treatment, especially ones targeting metastatic disease.

Deadline: 1 July 2014
