Senior experienced researcher
Within the framework of an ERC-Consolidator grant, the research project deals with the development of temperature-responsive polymers, up-conversion and NIR-responsible nanoparticles to be used as drug delivery vectors using CFD simulations and microfluidic platforms for the synthesis of those hybrid carriers. The biological action of the resulting materials will be tested in vitro and in vivo.
The project will take place in the Aragon Nanoscience Institute (www.unizar.es/ina). The Institute is an interdisciplinary research institute of the University of Zaragoza, created in 2003. Our activity is focused on R+D in nanoscience and nanotechnology, based on the processing and fabrication of structures at the nanoscale and the study of their applications, in collaboration with companies and technological institutes from different areas.

Requirements:
PhD in Biology, Biochemistry, Biomedical Engineering, Biotechnology, Cancer biology, Cell biology, Immunology, Pharmacology and related fields.
The successful candidate will have a track-record of outstanding research in biomaterials/targeted drug delivery and in the study of in vivo activity in animal and ex vivo tissue bio-analysis. He/she will have to evidence a strong motivation for the interface between chemistry, physico-chemistry and biology with demonstrated molecular biology and biochemistry skills. Experience with animal handling, in vivo small animal imaging is necessary. Experience in chronic pain is a plus.
Good level of English is a must.
Non-Spanish applicants should have their PhD titles convalidated by the Spanish Ministry of Education. Those applications without this requirement will be invalidated.
Details:
Appointment will be on a Fixed Term Contract for 6 months initially with the possibility of extension subject to successful results to a maximum of 5 years. Approximate gross salary: 32.189 euro/year (category N1 according to the standards of the University of Zaragoza for a senior experienced researcher).
