The mission of the Catalan Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (ICN2) is to achieve the highest level of scientific and technological excellence in Nanoscience and Nanotechnology. Its research lines focus on the newly-discovered physical and chemical properties that arise from the behavior of matter at the nanoscale. ICN2 has been awarded with the Severo Ochoa Center of Excellence distinction for two consecutive periods (2014-2018 and 2018-2022). ICN2 comprises 19 Research Groups, 7 Technical Development and Support Units and Facilities, and 2 Research Platforms, covering different areas of nanoscience and nanotechnology.
Job Title: Postdoctoral researcher - Advanced Electronic Materials and Devices Group
Research area or group: Advanced Electronic Materials and Devices Group
Description of Group/Project:
"The Advanced Electronic Materials and Devices (AEMD) group focuses on the material sciences and technology aspects of novel electronic materials, with a strong emphasis on graphene as well as other 2D materials (MoS2). The group also works towards the development of technological applications based on these materials such as electronics, bioelectronics and biosensing, neural interfaces, etc.
The activities cut across different scientific aspects, from the fundamentals (the physics of devices and semiconductors) to materials (growth of graphene and MoS2 materials by CVD and MOCVD, surface functionalisation, advanced characterisation), through to devices (fabrication technology, nanofabrication) and applications (neural implants and biomedical technologies, biosensors, flexible electronics).
Main Tasks and responsibilities:
The research activity of the candidate will mainly involve in vivo electrophysiological and optogenetical experiments to assess cognitive abilities in animal models of schizophrenia.
The research activity of the candidate will be framed within the Smart5HT project (PID19-104683RB-I00).
Requirements:
- PhD in Neurochemistry, Biology, Physiology or similar
- Teamwork skills, Fluent English (both spoken and written)
- Proficient programming in Python
- Neuroscience, electrophysiology
- Optogenetics, neuropharmacology
- Cognitive assessment
Summary of conditions:
- Full time work (37,5h/week)
- Contract Length: 1 year
- Location: Bellaterra (Barcelona)
- Salary will depend on qualifications and demonstrated experience.
- Support to the relocation issues.
- Life Insurance.
