WHO WE ARE

At IIT we work enthusiastically to develop human-centered Science and Technology to tackle some of the most pressing societal challenges of our times and transfer these technologies to the production system and society.

Our Genoa headquarter is strictly inter-connected with our 11 centers around Italy and two outer-stations based in the US for a truly interdisciplinary experience.

YOUR TEAM

You will be working in a multicultural and multi-disciplinary group, where physicists, chemists, biologists, and electrical engineers collaborate, each with their own expertise, to carry out common research.

The Plasmon Nanotechnologies Research Line is coordinated by Francesco De Angelis, who has extensive experience in nano-optics, biosensing and bioelectronics.

The research focuses on developing radically new interfaces between human cells and nanosensors, including optical and electrical sensors (such as MEA-electrodes, CMOS-arrays or optical biosensors).

The aim is to develop new approaches for monitoring the electrical activity of human cells and their response to external stimuli.

We aim to conceive effective methods for toxicological screenings and for evaluating neurotoxicity and cardiotoxicity

Within the team, your main responsibilities will be:

Designing novel opto-electrical devices, sensors and systems for electrophysiological recordings of human tissues
Perform invitro experiments with cultured cells

A PhD in Physics, Engineering, or related field
Documented experience on the development and use of biomaterials, bioelectronics devices and systems for recording electrical activity of neuronal and cardiac cells
A strong publication record
The ability to properly report, organize and publish research data
Documented experience in coaching junior scientists
Good command in spoken and written English

EXTRA AWESOME

Experience on advanced cell cultures techniques or neuroprosthetics
Knowledge of both experimental design and theoretical modeling
