Postdoc researcher position in the field of Microsystems Technology - Inertial Microfluidics - Hiring in process/Finished, not possible to apply

Temporary part-time employment, 20%, 12 months  with access as soon as possible or according to agreement

The Division of Microsystems Engineering at the Department of Materials Science and Engineering conducts research on the use of microsystems in a variety of scientific fields, from biology to space technology. Common to all research is the desire to investigate how the properties of systems change when they are made smaller, and how these properties can be used to create simpler, cheaper and above all more functional technology.

Work duties: Research and development of techniques for inertial microfluidics and demonstration by sorting biological particles that are less than one micrometre in cross section. The assignments may also include supervision of students in projects related to the research issues

Qualification requirements: Doctoral degree in materials science or microsystem technology. We require solid knowledge and experience in inertia microfluidics. It is of high merit to have experience with systems that can focus and sort particles that are less than one micrometre in cross section.

We require good oral and written proficiency in English.

We put great emphasis on your personal characteristics.  You should be purposeful and structured and you can work effectively both individually and in groups.

Application: The application must contain a description of previous research experience, relevant publications, CV, copies of diplomas and other relevant documents. We are happy to see that you provide information about reference persons or attach a letter of recommendation.

Salary: Individual salary
