Kongens Lyngby, Lyngby-Tårbæk Kommune, Denmark Danmarks Tekniske Universitet (DTU) Full time
Job Description

We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher to join our team at DTU Physics, working on experimental research on enzymes immobilized on polymeric and organic-inorganic hybrid matrices for catalysis of chemical reactions. The successful candidate will work on visualizing the position, density, structure, and dynamics of immobilized enzymes using state-of-the-art optical and electron microscopy techniques.

The candidate will be part of a highly interdisciplinary collaboration, Biocatalysts Interactions with Gases (BIG), comprising novel characterization, analysis, testing, and modeling of gaseous substrates at immobilized enzymes, with international leading partners at North Carolina State University (NC State), Technical University of Denmark (DTU), and Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL).

Responsibilities and Tasks

  • Develop pioneering methods for nanoscale imaging of enzymes immobilized at "soft matter" and inorganic surfaces to determine enzyme position, density, and interaction with immobilization matrices.
  • Uncover fundamental characteristics of matrices for efficient enzyme-catalyzed reactions with gaseous substrates.
  • Explore factors influencing enzyme activity and longevity at immobilization matrices.
  • Use visualizations for understanding of enzyme structure-function aspects of catalysis.

The successful candidate will be affiliated with the Center for Visualizing Catalytic Processes (VISION) at DTU Physics and work closely with VISION's faculty members, PhD students, postdocs, and international leading collaborators.

Requirements

  • PhD degree in physics, chemistry, or biology.
  • Documented experience with optical and electron microscopy.
  • Experience in biocatalysis and nanoscience is preferred.
  • Experience in scientific programming, e.g., using Python, is important.

We Offer

DTU is a leading technical university globally recognized for the excellence of its research, education, innovation, and scientific advice. We offer a rewarding and challenging job in an international environment.
