Offer DescriptionWe offer a 9-month scholarship of PLN 2200 PLN per month financed from the NCN SONATA 15 Project No. 2019/35/D/ST5/00958 “Graphene biosensing and biophysics” led by dr. Izabela Kamińska. This exciting interdisciplinary project is realized in a collaboration with Prof. Tinnefeld from Ludwig-Maximilian University in Munich.
With this project, we aim at establishing a novel platform for the new field of graphene/hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) biosensing and biophysics. There are two major players: 2D material (graphene or graphene/hBN heterostructure) and DNA origami. On one hand, we have high quality 2D materials with outstanding optoelectronic properties but chemically inert. On the other hand, we have DNA origami structures folded solely from single- stranded DNA which allows for introduction of almost any entity (for example a chemical group) with very high (nanometer) precision. We want to use these building blocks to construct biosensors operating at single-molecules level as well as to investigate macromolecules which are of biological interest.
