PHD scholarship in Biophysical Nanomedicine.
A PhD studentship is available in biophysical nanomedicine at The Novo Nordisk Foundation Centre for Intestinal Absorption and Transport of Biopharmaceuticals (CitBIO).
[vc_text_separator title=” More Details ” title_align=”separator_align_left” color=”green” border_width=”2″]
Since biopharmaceuticals are critically important for current healthcare and hold the potential for new innovative treatments for many diseases and disorders, the CitBIO center is focused on developing new methods to significantly increase the absorption of biopharmaceuticals in the intestine.
The aim is to determine the peptide-, membrane- and cellular components that regulate and drive peptide translocation.
Job description:
- Learn to and conduct research at a high international level independently and within a team.
- Conduct themselves in a professional manner.
- Follow research plans to achieve major and minor goals linked to the Centre’s aims.
- Disseminate their research and help support teaching activities associated with the Centre.
Opportunity Focus Areas:
- Physics/biophysics.
- Analytical chemistry.
- Pharmacy.
- Chemical engineering.
- Material science.
- Bionanotechnology.
- Experience of relevant life sciences (e.g. cell biology, physiology etc.) is a bonus, but not essential.
