Master Thesis in The Field of Biosensor Technology
vor 6 Monaten
**What you will do**
For the joint Master Thesis, we aim for the selective functionalization of a carbon nanotube-based biosensor and investigation of the transistor characteristics upon exposure to liquid environments. This includes the optimization of functionalization routes for different probes and the study of surface properties. The device functionalization and structural modifications are studied via microscopy analysis, Raman spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy. The sensor response is monitored via electrical measurements. In the end, correlative data analysis should be carried out for a complete understanding of the sensor behavior.
As part of this project, you will:
- review existing literature on the topic
- handle and prepare solutions for bio-experiments
- take over process preparations, parameter setting variations and data evaluation regularly present your insights from literature and experiments in the workgroup seminars and document them in your thesis**What you bring to the table**
- In the course of your studies, you have already gained some practical experience with immunological/electrochemical assays and knowledge of data analysis and presentation using common computer programs.
- You approach the topics of microtechnology/microelectronics, surface properties and analytical characterization methods with curiosity.
- You actively contribute your own ideas and score points with your independent, result-oriented and structured way of working.
- Very good written and spoken English skills round off your profile.
**What you can expect**
- A Master thesis in a challenging international and interdisciplinary working environment with access to advanced technologies for biological and biochemical analyses.
- Integration into a dedicated team and the opportunity to actively shape your area of work. Our flat management hierarchy supports the independent work of our employees.
- Valuable preparation for future research or professional positions, where you will learn a variety of relevant scientific techniques and expand your skills in the independent planning of experimental work.
- Individual support at eye level while working on your thesis.
- Cutting-edge research only works with cutting-edge equipment: with a total of almost 8000 m² of laboratory space, we offer you everything a researcher's heart desires.
- Free parking and secure bicycle parking spaces as well as discounted employee prices in the institute’s cafeteria at the Leipzig site.
We will be happy to answer any technical questions about this position:
