Post-doctoral position in applications of magnetometry
ICFO is offering a postdoctoral position to a well-qualified, highly motivated and dynamic young scientist who wishes to enhance his / her scientific career in a friendly and stimulating environment.
The successful candidate will be joining the Atomic Quantum Optics group led by Prof. Dr. Morgan Mitchell. The tasks and responsibilities will include:
* Conduct experimental research in the following areas: Miniaturized optically pumped atomic magnetometers (OPMs) for ultra-low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (ZULF NMR) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI); NMR MRI with a focus on MRI of microfluidic platforms, using radio-frequency OPMs; Hyperpolarization of carbon-13 molecular probes and their detection using OPMs.
* Build experimental apparatus for nuclear spin hyperpolarization, OPMs, and NMR/MRI.
* Collaborate with the research group and external partners on cutting-edge atomic and nuclear sensor applications.
* Present research findings at group meetings, conferences, and through scientific publications.
* Support mentoring and supervision of junior researchers and students within the group.
* Maintain lab equipment and ensure compliance with safety protocols.
How to apply
Suitable candidates are requested to submit:
* Presentation letter with a declaration of interest.
* The contact e-mail of two potential referees.
Candidates will be assessed as they apply, and the call will remain open until the suitable candidate is identified.
