IMDEA Nanociencia is offering 10 PhD projects to predoctoral researchers interested in applying to la Caixa” INPhINIT incoming doctoral fellowships.
The doctoral fellowship programme INPhINIT ”la Caixa” Foundation is devoted to attracting talented researchers, of any nationality, who wish to pursue doctoral studies in Spanish or Portuguese territory. Sponsored by ”la Caixa” Foundation, it is aimed at supporting the best scientific talent and fostering innovative and high-quality research in Spain and Portugal by recruiting outstanding international students and offering them an attractive and competitive environment for conducting research of excellence.
The doctoral INPhINIT fellowships offer a highly competitive salary and complementary opportunities for training on transferrable skills (in annual training sessions), temporary stays in industry, incentives upon completion of the thesis, among other elements that make these fellowships some of the most attractive and complete in Europe. The maximum duration of the fellowship is 4 years.
IMDEA Nanociencia is a Severo Ochoa Research Centre of Excellence and offers an attractive international working environment coupled with strong interdisciplinary research with over 50 operative research laboratories organised in following research programmes: P1 Nanotechnology for energy harvesting, P2 Quantum materials at the nanoscale, P3 Nanotechnology for healthcare, P4 Nanomagnetism for Information and Communication Technologies, P5 Ultrafast phenomena at the nanoscale and P6 Sustainable nanotechnologies and critical raw materials.
For this call, we offer the following PhD projects:
- Characterization of influenza A virus replication dynamics at the single-molecule level using optical tweezers (Dr. Borja Ibarra)
- Charge Carrier Dynamics in Novel Semiconductors (Dr. Enrique Cánovas)Charge Carrier Dynamics in Novel Semiconductors (Dr. Enrique Cánovas)
- Exploiting Metal-based Selective Chemistry in the Cancer Cell (Dr. Ana Pizarro)
- Few-atom metal nanoclusters for optoelectronics and energy applications (Prof. Juan Cabanillas)
- In operando investigation of emerging phenomena in 2D quantum material-based nanodevices (Dr. Manuela Garnica Alonso)
- Tumor-on-a-chip devices for preclinical nanomedicine studies (Prof. Isabel Rodríguez)
- Two-dimensional metal-organic networks for sensing and catalysis (2DMONCAT) (Prof. David Écija)
- Modified Oligonucleotides as Regulators of Long non-coding RNAs for Therapeutic Applications (Prof. Álvaro Somoza)
- Unraveling All Optical Switching mechanism by means of optical and X-ray wave-mixing methods (Dr. Cristian Svetina)
