## PhD Position: Microfluidics for single-cell visual proteomics

Fully funded PhD position available at the Biozentrum of the
University of Basel, Switzerland.

The Biozentrum of the University of Basel is one of the leading Life
Sciences Institutes in the world. It consists of 30 research groups and
500 employees investigating how molecules and cells create life,
spanning the scale from atom to organism. Founded in 1971, the
Biozentrum has been the birthplace of many fundamental discoveries in
biology and medicine, spawning several Nobel Laureates.

We are looking for a motivated young scientist to work in Thomas
Braun’s interdisciplinary team. The project intents at further
developing microfluidic sample preparation methods for single-cell
nanoanalytics by electron microscopy. In particular, we aim to develop
our visual proteomics workflow further. In addition, the new
methodologies will be employed to study pathomechanisms and the
structural proteome of neurodegenerative diseases.

## We offer

* A PhD position funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNF)
* The project will be embedded in a small interdisciplinary research
team and the Biozentrum of the University of Basel
* Access to state of the art facilities at the Biozentrum
