IFG - Doctoral candidate, research assistant (f/m/d) as part of the MSCA EU project “NanoRAM”, research topic: “Digitalization of Biomaterial Research via Deep Learning Approaches”

Area of research:

Scientific / postdoctoral posts

Starting date:

15.03.2024

Job description:

You will contribute to the project “Digitalization of Biomaterial Research via Deep Learning Approaches” (DC10) which involves the following tasks:

• Preparation of model biomaterial surfaces using systematic variation of surface chemistry via vapour deposition polymerization of functionalized poly-p-xylylenes
• Deep learning-based analysis of fingerprint-like drying droplet patterns by training of convolutional neural networks (CNN)
• Use the CNN to extract cellular localization patterns in polarized light microscopy images via end-to-end hierarchical feature representations
• Complementary characterization via elaborate techniques (e.g. Circular Dichroism, Time-of-Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry, Imaging Ellipsometry)
• Improve the model management to ensure reproducibility by avoiding information loss

This research center is part of the Helmholtz Association of German Research Centers. With more than 42,000 employees and an annual budget of over € 5 billion, the Helmholtz Association is Germany's largest scientific organisation.
