PhD Position in Single-Molecule Biophysics

Delft University of Technology is seeking a motivated PhD candidate to join the Faculty of Applied Sciences for a project focused on molecular mechanisms in biological systems. The research involves applying single-molecule fluorescence and biochemistry alongside computational methods to study protein-ligand and protein-peptide interactions. You will work in an international, interdisciplinary environment to generate multiplexing data and validate machine learning predictions. This position is part of a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Doctoral Network, offering the opportunity to collaborate with international partners on therapeutic applications. The successful candidate will contribute to both fundamental and medical sciences while developing their research and transferable skills.

• Apply single-molecule fluorescence and biochemical techniques to study molecular mechanisms.
• Develop and utilize computational methods for data analysis.
• Generate high-throughput single-molecule multiplexing data.
• Validate machine learning predictions using experimental datasets.
• Collaborate with international partners on therapeutic research applications.
• Participate in the TU Delft Graduate School doctoral education programme.
• Communicate research findings through scientific articles and a final thesis.
