København

Are you ready to work in a rapidly growing Biotech start-up? Helping out with your initiative and your problem-solving attitude? We are looking for you to join our great team!

BluSense Diagnostics is seeking a motivated PhD student with strong background within biochemistry. The PhD project is a part of the European Innovative Training Network SuperCol.

BluSense Diagnostics uses an opto-magnetic based method to quantify biomarker induced agglutination of magnetic particles. The magnetic nanoparticles are conjugated with capture molecules (antigens or antibodies), to allow specific agglutination. The density of capture molecules and the passivation are critical for the performance of the magnetic nanoparticles, and can be tuned to optimize sensitivity, specificity, obtain super-selectivity or an extended dynamic range of the response.

You will work in our Biochem team with conjugation of magnetic nanoparticles, characterization of the particles, as well as evaluation of the sensor performance for dengue fever biomarkers detection.

The period of employment is 3 years.

Your responsibilities

  • Develop a generic chemical protocol to vary the density of capture molecules on magnetic particles.

  • Develop a generic method to label the active sites with ssDNA and fluorescent labelled target molecules.

  • Study structure-function relationship that links the particle structure to sensor performance.

  • Study the effect of biological media on the activity of functional groups on the magnetic particles.

  • Report results to EU.

  • Document you work in experimental reports for BluSense Diagnostics.


Your qualifications

  • You have experience with bio-conjugation and/or click-chemistry

  • You can perform statistical analyses of data to evaluate performance of an assay

  • You have excellent communication skills in English, written and oral

  • You are an Early-Stage Researcher in your first four years of research

  • You have not yet been awarded a doctoral degree

  • You have not resided or carried out your main activity (work, studies, etc.) in Denmark for more than 12 months in the 3 years immediately prior to the start date

  • You have a two-year master's degree (120 ECTS points) or a similar degree with an academic level equivalent to a two-year master's degree
