Unity developer Jobs in Riehen

Your tasks

We are seeking a highly motivated and curious PhD candidate with a passion for quantitative data analysis in the fields of immunology and biophysics. In this role, you will contribute to seminal work on the cellular and molecular characterization of receptor activation in immune cells by applying biophysics to living cells. Building on our earlier findings that focal molography can be used to study immunological receptors on living cells, you will investigate immune cell activation and T‑cell activity. This interdisciplinary position offers the rare opportunity to work closely with Lino Biotech, the developer of focal molography, and Miltenyi Biotec, in a collaboration supported by Innosuisse funding. The position is based at FHNW’s new Muttenz campus, just outside Basel, Switzerland. The project is fully funded by Innosuisse, and the PhD thesis will be carried out in collaboration with the University of Bern. The working place will be at the FHNW new Campus Muttenz, just outside Basel, Switzerland.

Key objectives includes :

• Develop cellular assays to assess immune-cell activation using focal molography
• Investigate kinetic and functional modulation of immune-cell receptor activation by small-molecule compounds
• Perform data analysis and modeling using Python
• Transfer and establish assays in clinically relevant primary human cells
• Opportunity to supervise Bachelor’s and Master’s students
