Basel, Schweiz Universität Basel Vollzeit

**PhD position on quantum sensing of biomolecules and their chemical stimuli (P2403) 100%**

**position for 4 years, earliest starting date: 1 January 2025**

**Your position**

In this interdisciplinary PhD project, you will:

- Build an optically-detected magnetic resonance (ODMR) spectrometer based on state-of-the-art equipment.
- Detect single particles and single photons to establish new fluorescence readouts.
- Develop a range of biocompatible experiments to detect protein molecules and their chemical stimuli.

This work will yield key steps towards single-molecule NMR of biomolecules based on our progress in optical quantum sensing with NV centers. This is a full-time position, and a project we ideally want to start in the first half of 2025..

**Your profile**

Prior experience in several of these areas is desired:

- Optics and fluorescence spectroscopy techniques,
- Quantum sensing, ideally using color centers,
- Single-molecule experiments and interpretation,
- Advanced data analysis, coding, modeling, machine learning.

Essential requirements:

- MSc degree in physics or physical-chemistry with excellent grades,
- High motivation and curiosity about fundamental questions and method development,
- Independent analytical thinking and systematic work style,
- Excellent experimental problem-solving skills and perseverance,
- Great team player proficient in English (speaking & writing).

**We offer you**
- An exciting and fully funded PhD project in Basel, Switzerland,
- Embedding in the PhD school of the Swiss Nanoscience Institute (SNI),
- A productive, interdisciplinary group with an open and interactive lab culture,
- State-of-the-art research infrastructure and facilities,
- A highly international and interdisciplinary setting stimulating your professional and personal development,
- The GRACE graduate center, wide-ranging sports offers, etc.
- A beautiful and very lively city at the intersection of Germany, France, and Switzerland.
