We are looking to fill a postdoctoral researcher position in the Biohybrid Materials (Prof. Mauri Kostiainen) research group. Our laboratory is situated on the campus of Aalto University in Otaniemi within the Department of Bioproducts and Biosystems. Our research is funded through the European Research Council (ERC), and we are part of the Finnish Academy Center of Excellence (CoE) on Life-Inspired Hybrid Materials and Gene, Cell and Nano Therapy Flagship. CoEs and Flagships are the forerunners of Finnish research.
As a successful applicant, you should be highly motivated in experimental science and have a background and a recently obtained doctoral degree (within the last five years) in chemistry, biosciences, physics or a closely related field. Solid skills for example in protein engineering, structural DNA nanotechnology, organic synthesis or polymer chemistry as well as related characterization techniques are an additional advantage.
