SUPPORT TECHNICIAN IN RAMAN SPECTROSCOPY DATA

• (2400007S)
  Commitment & contract: fixed term contract
  Location: Center for Biomolecular Nanotechnologies (CBN) in Lecce, Italy (https://cbn.iit.it/en-US/home).

ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENTS

• A Master of Science in informatic engineering
• Coding skills in Phyton, Matlab, C++ and html
• Good command of spoken and written English

ADDITIONAL SKILL

• Ability to work in a challenging and international environment
• Capacity to work autonomously and collaboratively in a highly interdisciplinary environment
• Possess Analytical Reasoning skills and a growth mindset

You will be working in a multicultural and multi-disciplinary group. The team is composed by material scientists, physicists, neuroscientists, electronic engineers, computational scientists, biotechnologist and biomedical engineers, sharing their expertise to work at the border of these multiple disciplines. The main aim will be to correlating multifunctional signals in 3D printed neurochips for next generation studies on neural degeneration, via spectroscopy and electrophysiological recordings. The position will be framed
The Smart Healthcare Technologies Research Unit is coordinated by Prof. Massimo De Vittorio, who has extensive experience in the development of science and technology applied to nanophotonics, nanoelectronics and nano and micro electromechanical systems (NEMS/MEMS) for applications in the fields of life-science, energy and ICT.
The research focuses on environment, health and safety (EHS), functionalized materials and robotics. This includes developing a new generation of bio interfaces based on novel electronic, piezoelectric, acoustic and optoacoustic technologies to interact more efficiently with living cells and organisms. Activities include basic research and full prototyping (up to TRL 6-7), market-oriented technology development and translational research of medical devices.

Your main responsibility will be:

• Build and manage a website and related database of data to serve as “The Raman Atlas of the Mouse Brain”
• Support research activity on Raman spectroscopy in tissue
