Postdoctoral position on graphene coating of biomedical surfaces prone to bacterial infections

Last updated on Fri 22/07/2022 - 14:54

An 18-month postdoctoral position is offered to a qualified expert to work on an exciting project in collaboration between the Chalmers University of Technology (Mijakovic and Westerlund laboratories) and Wellspect Healthcare, the second largest global manufacturer of intermittent hydrophilic catheters. The objective of the project is to evaluate the possibility to use graphene as an antibacterial coating for medically relevant surfaces. The postdoctoral fellow will be hired by both Chalmers and Wellspect Healthcare (double affiliation) and is expected to work in a highly interdisciplinary, inter-sectorial and international environment.

This position is an excellent opportunity for those seeking to explore the interface between the academia and industry, with possibilities for mobility in either direction.
