Position as Researcher in Novel Proton and Neutron Radiotherapies (ref 258809)

NuCapCure is an ambitious EU project. Pathfinder projects are high-risk / high-gain innovative projects and NuCapCure was evaluated 1st out of approximately 800 projects, with a perfect score of 5/5. NuCapCure is a collaborative effort of a seven team intra-European consortium (Greece, Spain, Netherlands, Germany, Czech Republic, and Norway), and it is coordinated by the Department of Physics at UiO, which together with its associated partner Oslo University Hospital (OUS) comprise the Norwegian team.

The work at hand is in the field of novel proton and neutron radiotherapies, using bespoke photosensitive agents which would conventionally be used in the field of Photodynamic therapy.

The successful candidate must be able to work with cells, cell survival, cell biochemical assays, and flow cytometry. Also, they will work with proton and neutron radiation in Norway and abroad. The successful candidate should be able to work with pre-clinical models to validate the in vitro findings.

The candidate should be able to travel and work for short intervals at partners facilities, including the nuclear reactor at Rez in the Czech Republic or the proton centre at UCMG at Groningen to help design and perform experiments.
