About the position

We are seeking a highly motivated and talented Ph D student for a 3-year position at the department of radiation biology related to the research project “Targeted Alpha-Emitting Radionuclides for Cancer Therapy”.

The position belongs to the research group of “Targeted alpha therapy” consisting of 7 employees. The group’s research maintains a high professional level and collaborates closely with national industrial and research environments.
The aim of this project is to study the radiobiological cellular effects and the mechanisms leading to cell death by alpha-emitting radiopharmaceuticals, identify resistance mechanisms; develop predictive methods and treatment strategies for improved targeted alpha therapy. By elucidating the biological and molecular mechanisms underlying the efficacy and limitations of this therapy, this project aims to advance the development safer and more efficient therapies for prostate cancer using this therapy alone or in combination with other therapies.
Main Objectives:

Investigate the mechanisms underlying cellular response to alpha-emitting radionuclides.
Explore the pathways contributing to resistance against targeted alpha therapy.
