PhD - Next-generation protein diagnostics for healthcare applications

This PhD project offers you a unique opportunity to pioneer a novel protein assay for our innovative Vivalytic point-of-care platform. Here, you will not only help shape the next generation of medical technologies but also make a direct contribution to improving patient care.

• You will begin your work with an in-depth analysis of the current state of research and lay the strategic foundation for the project by comprehensively researching and evaluating diverse assay technologies, from innovative recognition molecules to advanced coupling and detection strategies.
• As the core of your dissertation, you will practically implement these concepts by developing, building, optimizing, and validating a complete, automated assay workflow on our microfluidic system, mastering the interplay of biochemistry, surface chemistry, and system integration.
• Furthermore, you will actively collaborate with our highly interdisciplinary team throughout the entire project and regularly present your research findings to internal stakeholders.
