Openings
Are you interested in single-molecule biophysics, acoustofluidics and/or 2D materials nanodevices? We are looking for talented and motivated experimentalists to join our team.
PhD students
We currently do not have funded PhD positions.
Postdocs
Postdoc position - Single-molecule biophysics at 2D material interfaces (1.5 years, ERC funding)
In this interdisciplinary project you will combine cutting-edge nanofabrication techniques, 2D materials nanomechanics and nanophotonics, and fluorescence imaging to innovate single-molecule detection platforms. You will have the opportunity to develop new fundamental insights into light-matter interactions at the nanoscale for application in next-generation protein fingerprinting.
Bachelor and Master Thesis projects
We welcome motivated students who want to work at the interface of nanotechnology and biophysics. Current available projects are listed below:
-
Engineering 2D material nanoprobes as ultrasensitive biomolecule detectors
-
Surface acoustic waves (SAW) devices for on chip transport of single molecules
-
Engineering programmable DNA origami nanoactuators for size selective biosensing
-
Acoustic transport in SAW devices with suspended 2D membranes
If you are interested, please contact Sabina Caneva.
