Post-Doctoral fellowship in Brazil. Complex Fluids Group

Process FAPESP 2023/10843-7

Title: Synthesis and characterization of multi-functional lipid-based nano-particles, with potential biomedical application in cancer and atherosclerosis: a multidisciplinary approach

Abstract: Post-doctoral fellowship in "Study of human lipoproteins" with FAPESP scholarship. The Complex Fluids group of the Institute of Physics of USP offers a post-doctoral opportunity, with FAPESP scholarship , linked to a Thematic Project. The fellow will develop projects involving human low- and high-density lipoproteins (HDL and LDL) from patients with different pathologies. X-ray diffraction, linear and non-linear optics techniques will be employed in these projects. The project will be developed at the Institute of Physics of USP under the supervision of Professor Martins Figueiredo Neto. 

Candidates should send their application by email to (afigueiredo@if.usp.br) with their curriculum vitae, cover letters and recommendation. A remote interview will be held with the candidates. The position is open to Brazilians and foreigners. The selected candidate will receive a FAPESP Postdoctoral Fellowship in the amount of about USD 2,200.00 per month and a Technical Reserver (very good for the Brazilian standards). The fellowship will last for one year and may be extended for another period of one year.

More information is available at www.fapesp.br/bolsas/pd. Candidates should apply by July 31, 2025, by sending an email to Professor A.M. Figueiredo Neto (afigueiredo@if.usp.br).

PhD Position Sfeer Project

The stimuli-responsive functional materials and devices (SFD) group at the Eindhoven University of Technology has vacancies for a 1 PhD Student (1.0 fte) “Thermochromic Infra-Red Reflective Foils”

Project description

Do you want to work with innovative materials and coatings? And do you want to develop products that contribute to the energy transition? Then this PhD vacancy is what you are looking for! In this PhD project you will create a smart infrared light (IR) reflector foil that can be placed on a window. IR light makes up 50% of the total sunlight energy and is a significant interior heating source of buildings. Your foil will autonomously and reversibly change between an IR reflective and a transparent state upon heating/cooling, all the while remaining transparent to visible light. Thus, the ‘smart’ temperature responsive IR reflector will reject IR at higher temperatures, reducing heating of the indoor space and the load on air conditioning systems. If this can be done, it will be a major step towards the construction of energy neutral buildings. In this multidisciplinary project you will work together with industrial partners, spin-off companies, institutes and other universities.
