You will work on developing and optimizing pore-forming toxins (PFTs) for selective cancer cell targeting. This will involve expressing and purifying PFTs, as well as performing (computational) protein engineering and directed evolution to create PFTs that target cancer cells with high selectivity.
Since PFTs can also function as biosensing elements (as biological nanopores) you will also utilize these PFTs in artificial lipid bilayers for sensing applications and collaborate on the development of a microfluidic platform.
There will be room for you to contribute to shaping the specific approaches taken in this project, allowing you to tailor aspects to your own research interests, where feasible.
You will have access to state-of-the-art facilities and will work in a highly collaborative and supportive research environment, with many opportunities for interdisciplinary collaboration.
Your profile
- a Ph D degree in Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, Cell Biology or a related field;
- experience in directed evolution and cell culture;
- experience in AI-driven protein design is an advantage;
- good communication skills and a good command of English
Our offer
- A full-time position for 1 year
- The salary and associated conditions are in accordance with the collective labour agreement for Dutch universities (CAO-NU).
- You will receive a gross monthly salary ranging from € 4.060 to € 5.331,-
- There are excellent benefits including a holiday allowance of 8% of the gross annual salary, an end-of-year bonus of 8.3%, and a solid pension scheme.
- A minimum of 232 leave hours in case of full-time employment based on a formal workweek of 38 hours. A full-time employment in practice means 40 hours a week, therefore resulting in 96 extra leave hours on an annual basis.
- Free access to sports facilities on campus.
- A family-friendly institution that offers parental leave (both paid and unpaid).
- Excellent career support and courses for your professional and personal development.
