Netherlands University of Twente, Post-doc position in scaffold fabrication and high-throughput screening
Our lab has developed in the past years high throughput screening (HTS) assays to evaluate cell-material interactions on different culturing substrates. In the further effort to expand the potential of these HTS assays, we are currently looking forward to develop HTS for 3D scaffolds.
For this project we are looking for a post-doctoral fellow who will engage in the development of 3D scaffolds with tailorable physicochemical properties and in the assessment of cell-material interactions by a number of imaging techniques, and biochemical and histological assays.
Requirements
The University of Twente. We stand for life sciences and technology. High tech and human touch. Education and research that matter. New technology which drives change, innovation and progress in society. The University ofTwente is the only campus university in the Netherlands; divided over six faculties we provide more than fifty educational programmes. The University ofTwente has a strong focus on personal development and talented researchers are given scope for carrying out pioneering research.
