We have a fully funded PhD position in neuroscience for 36 months within the Marie Skłodowska-Curie International Training Network MEDICIS-PROMED (<a href="http://medicis-promed.web.cern.ch/" class="">http://medicis-promed.web.cern.ch/</a>).
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The project will investigate new instruments and delivery methods for brachytherapy using stereotactic or robotic-assisted surgery for the treatment of non-resectable brain cancer and investigate the impact and efficiency of these methods at the
organ and cellular levels. In particular, the project will investigate how brachytherapy affects the brain’s microvasculature and immune system. New isotopes with specific types of emission, tissue penetration and half-life will be developed at CERN-MEDICIS
and we will use stereotactic and/or image-guided placement of coated particles based on magnetic resonance imaging.
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The candidate should hold a master degree in biology, biophysics, bioengineering or equivalent, and ideally be skilled in developments at the interface between medical imaging, instrumentation, programming and/or robotic. Experience in the life
sciences with a strong motivation to be involved in the development of biomedical applications is a must. A candidate with experience in nuclear medicine would be favoured.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The student will take part in all the activities of the network and be supervised directly by Professor Léo Bühler (Geneva University Hospitals) and myself (University of Geneva and CERN).<br class="">
<br class="">
Specific eligibility criteria apply. See <a href="http://jobs.web.cern.ch/job/11979" class="">http://jobs.web.cern.ch/job/11979</a> for further details. Apply directly on the CERN website. </div>
