cellular conversion factors PostDoc positions and fellowships

This postdoctoral position at the Laboratoire Albert Fert (CNRS, Thales, Université Paris-Saclay) in Palaiseau, France, focuses on investigating spin-to-charge and orbital-to-charge conversion in Rashba heterostructures. The successful candidate will develop two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG)-based systems for efficient generation of charge currents from spin and orbital currents, quantify conversion efficiencies, and identify conditions for large output signals at room temperature. Activities include heterostructure growth by magnetron sputtering, magnetic and magnetotransport characterization, device fabrication using UV photolithography, ferromagnetic resonance and spin-pumping experiments, data analysis and modelling, and dissemination of results through reports, publications, and conferences. The role offers access to state-of-the-art facilities and collaboration with leading experts in spintronics, oxide electronics, and quantum materials.

Fully funded 4-year PhD project at Delft University of Technology focusing on metabolic engineering of bovine satellite cell lines to improve cost‑effectiveness and scalability of cultivated meat production.

Postdoctoral position in the Brossier lab investigating factors affecting tumorigenesis in pediatric brain tumors and NF1-related conditions. Research focuses on genetic and environmental influences on tumor development, neurodevelopmental factors, and cognitive effects. Requires Ph.D. in biological sciences with experience in mouse models, cell culture, and molecular biology techniques.

The Centre for Formal Methods and Future Computing (FORM) at the University of Southern Denmark invites applications for postdoctoral fellowships in Computer Science with a focus on formal methods, including topics such as computational complexity, distributed systems, human factors, logic, programming languages, and security. Candidates should hold or be near completing a PhD in Computer Science or Mathematics, possess a strong international research record, and have experience in formal methods theory, development, or usage. Fluency in English is required. Positions are based in Odense, with a flexible start in late autumn 2026 and funding up to four years.

This Postdoctoral Research Fellow position in Extracellular Vesicle Analysis at Macquarie University focuses on developing innovative platforms for engineering chiral extracellular vesicles (EVs) to enhance cellular uptake understanding. The fellow will lead EV engineering platform development, maintain and supervise the EV Analysis Facility, conduct independent research using spectroscopic tools, publish high-quality manuscripts, seek external funding, foster interdisciplinary collaborations, and ensure workplace health and safety. The role requires a PhD in analytical chemistry, bioanalysis, biosensors or related fields, experience in cell biology, biotechnology, nanomaterials, and EV research, along with strong communication and leadership skills.

The Post-Doctoral Researcher position within the FITTER Project at Technological University Dublin invites candidates with a PhD or equivalent to contribute to interdisciplinary research on human factors in safety and sustainability. The role involves supporting ongoing projects, identifying external funding opportunities, and collaborating with academic and industry partners across multiple TU Dublin campuses. Successful applicants will join a dynamic research centre focused on improving safety practices and sustainable solutions through evidence-based research.

This postdoctoral position at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory's Molecular Foundry focuses on developing protein-based nanoparticle probes for Infrared Force Microscopy to measure cellular forces with high sensitivity. The scholar will engineer proteins and bioconjugation methods targeting Avalanching Nanoparticles for force measurements in live cells and biofilms, optimize nanoparticle surfaces and delivery in microbial systems, perform data analysis, prepare manuscripts, and collaborate within a multidisciplinary team.

Postdoctoral researcher position in molecular epidemiology and breast cancer research at UNC-Chapel Hill's Troester Lab, focusing on identifying genetic and environmental risk factors using data from the Carolina Breast Cancer Study.

This postdoctoral fellowship focuses on investigating a newly identified pathway involved in relapse of pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) using Patient-Derived Xenograft (PDX) mouse models. The successful candidate will study biological mechanisms driving disease recurrence and identify therapeutic opportunities, employing techniques such as flow cytometry, microscopy, and cellular and molecular biology approaches. The position is based at the Center for Translational Medicine Institute, INSERM UMR1231, University of Burgundy, Dijon, France, with a one-year funded contract starting January 2027.

The Troester Lab at UNC-Chapel Hill seeks a postdoctoral researcher to lead molecular epidemiology and breast cancer research using data from the Carolina Breast Cancer Study. The position focuses on identifying genetic and environmental risk factors for breast cancer and benign breast disease in a collaborative, multidisciplinary environment.

This PhD position focuses on developing structured ego-world models to scale dexterous robot learning by decoupling scene dynamics from embodiment through 3D/4D geometric grounding and factorized latent representations. The project leverages large-scale human video datasets to pretrain interaction dynamics that transfer to robots via lightweight embodiment adaptation. Over three years, the candidate will design geometric grounding mechanisms, build factorized world models separating world dynamics from ego-kinematics, and establish benchmarks for cross-embodiment transfer, geometric consistency, and long-horizon performance.
