Studying the effects of protein pocket electric fields in chromophores
Funded by the programa de atracción de Talento “CESAR NOMBELA” of the Madrid community.
PROJECT. 2023-T2/ECO-28965
SUPERVISORS: Dr. Sara H. Mejías (sara. hernandez@imdea. org)
EMPLOYMENT OFFER: 1-year employment contract, starting in October 2023 (flexible) with the possibility of expanding the contract.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: In nature, protein electric fields play a key role in enhancing electron transfer rates. Mimicking their effects in artificial photosystems would be ideal for applications, but still many open questions in terms of their action mechanisms are opened. In this project, we will develop a model photosystem that will allow to study the role of internal electric field in the excited state dynamics of chromophores.
POSITION PROFILE:
- Bachelor in physics, chemistry or similar.
- Master in nanotechnology, or in a related field.
- Good English level, both written and spoken.
- Team working skills (highly important).
In addition to the listed items, the evaluation committee will value the following:
- Experience with spectroscopic techniques.
- Experience with bio-hybrid engineering.
WHAT IS OFFERED FOR THE CANDIDATE: We offer the possibility of joining a department with a healthy working environment in a lab with cutting-edge facilities. The research assistant will develop her/his activity with guidance and help in an environment of freedom and with internal and external synergies. Moreover, IMDEA offers a good training program for early-stage researchers with courses on topics such as scientific and technological management, career development, and science communication.
RESEARCH ENVIRONMENT: Our group is part of the ultrafast phenomena at the nanoscale department at IMDEA Nanoscience with a collaborative and international environment. In the department, we have an active seminar program to share and discuss scientific progress having the input of scientists from different areas. Moreover, IMDEA offers a good training program for PhD students with courses on topics such as scientific and technological management, career development, and science communication.
SALARY: The salary has been fixed in agreement with national standards for the position.
INSTRUCTIONS: Interested candidates must submit their application before September 25, 2024, to the email sara. hernandez@imdea. org, including the CV.
