Researchers in Analytical Nanobio ElectrochemistryDiary id:PAR 2020/772
Employment level:Fixed term
Location:Department of Chemistry and Molecular Biology
Apply by:2020-08-02
We seek two persons to contribute to a strong research program and add value to the on-going research in the Ewing laboratory at the University of Gothenburg. The topics of the work will be chemical measurements with nano electrodes to understand the structure and dynamics of nanometer transmitter vesicles. Work assignmentsThe job assignments mainly include planning, designing and carrying out research with electrochemistry at single cells to understand exocytosis. Target applications will be in cellular neuroscience and transmitter vesicles, particularly the use of this method to understand vesicle opening at carbon nanotip electrodes for analysis and the use of these methods in stem cells. QualificationsA PhD degree in Analytical Chemistry is required with at least two year’s experience after the PhD. We are seeking two persons that have experience with nanoelectrochemical analysis. One position requires someone with experience with electrochemical analysis at neuroprogenitor cells and the effects of ischemia on cells. The other position requires someone with experience with nanoarray electrodes as well as use of modafinil to affect single cell exocytosis. These areas are essential to the success of this project and applicants need to have experience in both to be considered eligible. EmploymentThe employments are two time-limited positions on fulltime for one year, placed at the Department of Chemistry and Molecular Biology in Gothenburg. Starting in September or upon agreement. ContactsIf you have questions regarding the position, please contact Professor Andrew Ewing, andrewe@chem.gu.se.
