Offer Description

Tuning model colloidal gels by external magnetic fields.  Applications in Cancer Treatment 

 

Within the European doctoral network “CoCoGel ” a Ph.D. position is available at Nanogetic in collaboration with the University of Granada and the University of Utrecht to evaluate the influence of particle aggregation in the magnetic hyperthermia of colloidal gels in model tumors. Nanogetic will provide hands-on training on the synthesis and surface functionalization of magnetic particles for their use in magnetic hyperthermia, the biological characterization of the particles and the evaluation of antitumoral properties based on hyperthermia including in vitro evaluation of antitumoral activity by MTT, Annexin / PI assay, migration assay by flow cytometry and confocal analysis.

In collaboration with the University of Granada, the PhD candidate will learn to operate a triaxial magnetic field generator to superimpose highly controlled fields on a model tumor.

The candidate will spend 16 months at the University of Granada (Granada, Spain) to generate magnetic colloidal gels under a home-made unsteady triaxial magnetic field generator and 2 months at the University of Utrecht to learn to extend in-house simulation tools to account magnetic effects and compare simulations to experiments.
