The The Biosensors for Bioengineering Group group at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) is looking for a laboratory technician to work on the development of magnetic resonance tools to study metabolism on cell cultures and tissue engineered organ-on-a-chip systems. As part of our efforts to create a platform for tailored drug testing, the successful candidate will be involved in the technical development of Carbon-13 hyperpolarization methods, as well as carrying out work on the cell culture and tissue engineering side of the project.
This multidisciplinary project is at the interface between physics, chemistry, biochemistry and tissue engineering.
The contract will be within the framework of the EU FET Open project “Benchtop NMR spectrometer for lab-on-a-chip” (https://blocproject.eu), whose objective is the development of non-invasive assays based on hyperpolarized magnetic resonance (MR) to study real-time metabolism on tissue engineered organ-on-a-chip systems.
