Postdoc Position: In-Situ Electron Microscopy of Electrochemistry

Battery and fuel cell technologies are key in the energy transition; the storage of green electricity generated through sustainable energy resources like wind and solar, is becoming increasingly important. To obtain advanced understanding of the electrochemistry taking place at the electrode-electrolyte interfaces of batteries, the direct imaging of these processes in real time and at high resolution is urgently needed. To this end, we will perform electrochemistry inside the transmission electron microscope, which is expected to provide exciting insights.

BioSPX automatedmicroscopy workshop


During this workshop, we will showcase the capabilities of an
automated microscope and show how it can benefit you in
terms of time savings, as well as data quality and data
integrity.
There will be several imaging samples available that we will
image during the session.
In addition to imaging, we will discuss other topics such as the
possibilities of automated analyses, user-friendliness, and the
future-proof concept.

Job opportunity: PI position at UMC Utrecht

Principal Investigator position open at the Center for Molecular Medicine (CMM) at University Medical Center Utrecht, The Netherlands. This position has a transition overlap with the upcoming retirement of several PIs, including Judith Klumperman, a renowned expert in electron microscopy and membrane trafficking. The search for a new candidate is broad and primarily focused on research excellence. However, candidates with a strong interest in cell biology and/or microscopy are particularly encouraged to apply. It is worth noting that this position will be located near the research group of Nalan Liv, developing 3D CLEM methods to study organelle dysfunction in cancer, and that collaborative projects are highly encouraged within the CMM. The CMM is an interdisciplinary group of scientists working on fundamental research to understand the molecular mechanisms of diseases, with a focus on cancer. This also includes intracellular cancer-related processes, for example endo-lysosomal trafficking and exosome secretion. 

We look forward to receiving applications from qualified candidates and encourage you to forward this position to possible candidates.
