at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory and the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering
Tallahassee, Florida, USA
Postdoctoral Fellows are sought to join the Nanobio Materials and Robotics (NMR) group at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (NHMFL) and the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering. The individual will work on a series of projects related to stimuli-responsive soft matter.
Applicants interested in small-scale Active Colloids, Biophysics, and Synthetic Biology are encouraged to apply.
Responsibilities include training undergraduate and graduate students in experimental synthetic biology and diagnostic techniques, as well as the development and characterization of living microswimmers and active simi-synthetic nanobiomaterials. The position offers a wide range of professional development opportunities though the NHMFL, Florida A&M University (FAMU), and Florida State University (FSU), including participation in exciting government funded frontier science and engineering, mentoring experience, and the potential for initiating new independent research. The ideal applicants will have experience with one or more of the following: biophysical techniques, synthetic biology, colloidal physics, advanced image processing, machine learning, and magnetic/laser tweezers. Strong experimental skills are required, along with programing experience (e.g. MATLAB, Python, LabVIEW).
Experience and Skills Sought:
PhD in Engineering, Biophysics, Biology, or any other relevant discipline.
Experience with biophysics, synthetic biology, and/or micro/cell biology.
A track record of quality publications with excellent writing skills is essential.
Experience with magnetic tweezers, laser tweezers, and/or acoustic tweezers.
Advanced knowledge in image processing and optical/electron microscopy.
Interdisciplinary knowledge and skills bridging engineering to soft matter science.
Team player with outstanding leadership, communication, and presentation skills.
Start Date: Evaluation of applications will begin immediately, with start dates as early as July 2026. The position is for an initial period of one year, with a possible extension to a second and third year.
