PhD Student Separation of vitality ingredients 3/3
Dutch Separation Technology Institute (DSTI)
Many foods contain antioxidants (phytochemicals), primarily to improve their shelf-life, but away from that, antioxidants are also known to convey health benefits. Obviously, the level of antioxidants in the food (after processing) needs to be such that an appreciable shelf-life is guaranteed, and this may imply that antioxidant needs to be supplemented to the food. Within DSTI, we develop new methods to isolate these components, to be used in healthy food products. At present, there are no large-scale technologies available to isolate polyphenols from large process streams cost-effectively, that don't use environmentally unfriendly toxic solvents.
In this project a separation toolbox, based on molecular affinity will be developed and applied in several industrial cases brought by the project partners, in which also food matrix effects have to be taken into account. Primary food targets are liquid streams of green and black tea. The first activity of all partners involved in the project will be to define the scope of the toolbox in more detail. We propose to build on the Product Driven Process Synthesis methodology and to refine the toolbox further while applying it to the designed separation systems.
Within this project we have a vacancy for a PhD student on the conceptual design of processes for the isolation of vital ingredients from concentrated streams. The PhD student will study the properties of selected components and foods, and from this derive rules on how to design processes to isolate these ingredients while retaining their functionality.
The foods will be concentrated; this implies that they may be concentrated slurries or even pastes or solids. This means that many conventional separation technologies, such as filtration or centrifugation cannot be easily applied. Recently developed methods to handle these concentrated foods will therefore be evaluated experimentally and in theory, which will be the basis for the conceptual process design.
The work will be carried out in close collaboration with another PhD student and a post-doctorate fellow, located at two different universities, and with two companies.
For more information please contact prof.dr.ir. R.M. Boom (tel.+31 317 482884) or email remko.boomatwur.nl.
Requirements
Affinity and background in process technology to apply. You should have a MSc degree in food or chemical engineering or similar, from a Dutch university, or equivalent.
The candidate should have excellent communicative skills, be familiar with the basis of process engineering and the basis of process design, and be willing to explore new and unknown paths. Furthermore, the candidate is: Analytic in approaching problems, creative, innovative and both result & team oriented.
Conditions of employment
We offer a full-time contract for 4 years, with an intermediate evaluation after one year. Your salary will be in line with the Dutch standards for PhD students and Post Docs.
Furthermore, you will also benefit from the opportunity to do research that is scientifically challenging and of industrial relevance. At last, you can expect extra support towards your next career step within the DSTI network and benefit from other attractive secondary labor conditions.

PhD Student Separation of vitality ingredients 2/3
Dutch Separation Technology Institute (DSTI)
Plant polyphenols (phytochemicals) are bioactive compounds with wide range of health benefits. They are present predominantly in solid matrix of plant material. Concentrated and purified forms of phytochemicals provide improved activity and can be used on the wide product range. At present, there are no large-scale technologies suitable to isolate polyphenols from large process streams cost-effectively, environmentally friendly and with non-toxic solvent route. In this project a separation toolbox, based on molecular affinity and taking into account the food matrix effects will be developed and applied in several industrial cases brought by the project partners.
At this moment in time, there is no structured synthesis method for these types of separation systems. As such, the 'toolbox' including design 'rules', heuristics, short-cut models need to be developed. The first activity will be to define the scope of the toolbox in more detail. This will be done in collaboration with the other partners in the project.
We propose to build on the Product Driven Process Synthesis methodology and to refine and build the toolbox further while applying it designing the separation systems.
The process synthesis will be applied to liquid process streams (green and black tea). During the course of this work the connection with original F0-00-03 project stream: Development of carrier systems with high throughput should be made. The attention should be paid to the use of the developed carrier systems for affinity isolation, such as: microstructured carriers, micro-structured devices, functionalized adsorptive fibers (membrane carriers).
Requirements
You should have a MSc degree in chemical engineering, with proven affinity to separation technology and food engineering, from a Dutch university, or equivalent. The candidate should have excellent communicative skills and be willing to explore new and unknown paths. Furthermore, the candidate is: Analytic in approaching problems, creative, innovative and both result & team oriented.

PhD researcher in a project called:Transition in integrated health care delivery
Posted by:
University of Twente (UT)
Job description
PhD Transition in integrated health care delivery
This project is aimed at:
1. Designing process approaches of integrated assisted living centers
Evaluating and reflecting on the institutional barriers to develop new partnerships to develop assisted living centers.
Design of demand-oriented approach for assisted living centers
2. Developing a learning community of practice
Method
An action research model is chosen. The interaction between the practitioner and the researcher is important to get a better understanding of the problems faced by the practitioners. Lessons are context-specific and the experiments are part of a broader strategic agenda of various organizations, a.o. Carint.
The experiments dot not have a clear end-goal but are aimed at generating lessons for the specific problems arising in several cases. The research results will support the decision-making process in those cases and therefore adapt a development or design paradigm.
Besides generating lessons and designing solutions in the cases the project is also aimed at generating lessons in order to develop a sustainable societal change. Developing an organization or institutional memory is, however, hampered due to the uniqueness of the projects. Learning in a project-based industry is constrained by 'learning boundaries' and derivation of lessons learned and best practices is impeded.
Requirements
University Graduate

1. Designing process approaches of integrated assisted living centers
Evaluating and reflecting on the institutional barriers to develop new partnerships to develop assisted living centers.
Design of demand-oriented approach for assisted living centers
2. Developing a learning community of practice
Method
An action research model is chosen. The interaction between the practitioner and the researcher is important to get a better understanding of the problems faced by the practitioners. Lessons are context-specific and the experiments are part of a broader strategic agenda of various organizations, a.o. Carint.
The experiments dot not have a clear end-goal but are aimed at generating lessons for the specific problems arising in several cases. The research results will support the decision-making process in those cases and therefore adapt a development or design paradigm.
Besides generating lessons and designing solutions in the cases the project is also aimed at generating lessons in order to develop a sustainable societal change. Developing an organization or institutional memory is, however, hampered due to the uniqueness of the projects. Learning in a project-based industry is constrained by 'learning boundaries' and derivation of lessons learned and best practices is impeded.

PhD in a project called Advanced Laser Induced Subsurface Separation ALISS
Posted by:
University of Twente
Job description
Project
The project focuses on research of a new cutting machine for cutting silicium with laser beams. The project is a cooperation between the University of Twente, Philips, TNO, CCM, Sioux, ALSI and VDL. The research of the group is mainly aimed at the possibilities of ultra short laser pulses. The ALISS project will develop the necessary technologies to make internal modification by multiple laser beams an enabling technology for the use of very thin and lowk wafers. As such the project will deliver a breadboard environment that will show that laser dicing is possible and that the technology can be transferred to an industrial production environment. The required laser and breaking processes will be developed as well as pre-prototypes for the execution of the processes
The ALISS project will show that material modification in semiconductor material can be effectively done with a multi-beam approach. This is essential as this unique feature will have a one on one relation with the productivity of the final system. Current approaches only use single beams and need to process dicing streets several times. The possibility to align dicing streets on the dice in stead of on the global wafer markers will make the ALISS concept robust to cope with the developments in assembly.

PhD Behavioural needs and preferences of veal calves in relation to feeding and effects of different
Posted by:
Wageningen University and Research Centre (Wageningen UR)
Job description
Traditionally veal calves were fattened on a diet exclusively consisting of milk replacer. Calves fed in this manner consistently showed a range of serious behavioural and health problems. To improve the welfare of veal calves, provision of some solid feed is compulsory in the European Union since 1997. Nevertheless, abnormal behaviour is still occurring and health problems related to impaired rumen development, milk replacer leaking into the rumen, and abomasal lesions remain predominant. Until now, feeding strategies for veal calves were based mainly on nutritional and commercial considerations, and legislation. To optimize feeding strategies from an animals perspective, fundamental knowledge is required about behavioural needs and dietary preferences.
This PhD project aims to develop novel roughage-based feeding strategies for veal calves that respond better to their behavioural needs. Experiments will be conducted to assess feed preferences and determine effects of free feed selection of feed components on behaviour, health and performance. Furthermore, effects of different feeding strategies on general internal state such as arousal, frustration, and motivation will be studied using behavioural observations, behavioural tests, and operant methods. Finally, effects of different feeding strategies on behaviour and health will be studied in a commercial setting.
This project is funded by the NOW/LNV research programme The Value of Animal Welfare. It will be conducted in close collaboration with a PhD focussing on physiology and nutritional aspects of different feeding strategies, and a Postdoc focussing on environmental and economic trade offs of different feeding strategies.
Requirements
University Graduate
The candidate should
-have completed an academic study in biology, animal sciences or veterinary sciences; -have experience with research in the area of animal behaviour;
-have demonstrable knowledge of designing experiments, data processing, and data analysis;
-have good communication skills in English language (oral and written);
-be able to communicate with scientists and people from the industry;
Conditions of employment
To begin with, a PhD appointment for a period of 18 months. Continuation of the appointment with another 30 months will be based on performance evaluation. Gross salary per month 2042,= in the first year rising to 2612,= per month in the fourth year, based on a full time appointment

PhD Research Position in Environmental Engineering and Decision Analysis
Posted by:
Eawag: Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology
Job description
The doctoral thesis is part of the transdisciplinary project "Sustainable Water Infrastructure Planning" of the National Research Program "Sustainable Water Management" (NRP 61). The successful candidate will be part of a team of 3 PhD students that will develop a novel integrated, participatory planning procedure for municipal water infrastructures. The project focuses on dealing with limited data, the uncertainty of future developments, and ensuring high acceptance of the decision-making process by stakeholders.
The project combines engineering with decision sciences. The focus of this specific doctoral thesis is to combine quantitative models of water supply infrastructure with Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) to support the long term planning process. MCDA is a well-structured procedure combining cost-benefit calculations with subjective stakeholder preferences. Special attention is given to uncertainty: imperfect data, uncertain future scenarios, and the decision makers' own uncertainty concerning his or her preferences. The developed concepts and approaches will be applied to running real world planning processes in Switzerland.
Requirements
The candidate for this position is expected to hold a MS degree in Environmental Engineering, Environmental Sciences, or similar. He or she should have skills in mathematical modelling as well as the capability and interest to bridge the science-society interface in particular concerning the application of decision sciences and elicitation of stakeholder values. For this collaboration with municipalities and utilities in Switzerland, fluency in German is required. Additionally, we require the skills and willingness to work in an interdisciplinary team.
Conditions of employment
The position starts as soon as possible for a project duration of three years. PhD enrolment will be at ETH Zürich.

Eawag: Swiss Federal Institute of Aquatic Science and Technology
Job description
The doctoral thesis is part of the transdisciplinary project Sustainable Water Infrastructure Planning of the National Research Program Sustainable Water Management (NRP 61). The successful candidate will be part of a team of 3 PhD students that will develop a novel integrated, participatory planning procedure for municipal water infrastructures. The project focuses on dealing with limited data, the uncertainty of future developments, and ensuring high acceptance of the decision-making process by stakeholders.
The project combines engineering with decision sciences. The focus of this specific doctoral thesis is on stakeholder participation and Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) to support wastewater infrastructure planning under uncertain future scenarios. MCDA is a well-structured process combining cost-benefit calculations with subjective stakeholder preferences. Special attention is given to understanding stakeholder values, and integrating diverging interests of different stakeholders. The approach will be applied to running real world planning processes in Switzerland.
Requirements
The candidate for this position is expected to hold either a MS degree in Environmental Engineering, Environmental Sciences, or similar with a strong interest in the science-society interface, or a MS in economy or psychology with an interest to apply his or her knowledge to support wastewater infrastructure decisions. He or she should have the capability and interest to closely collaborate with stakeholders from Swiss municipalities and water utilities. For the interviews and workshops, fluency in German is required. Additionally, we require the skills and willingness to work in an interdisciplinary team.
Conditions of employment
The position starts as soon as possible for a project duration of three years. PhD enrolment will be at ETH Zürich. For further information, please consult www.eawag.ch, www.nfp61.ch, or contact Dr. Judit Lienert, Phone: +41 44 823 5574, Email judit.lienertateawag.ch.

Job Summary
PhD student position (scholarship) in human and ecological risk assessment of nanomaterials, supported by the FP7 funded ENPRA (Risk Assessment of Engineered NanoParticles) project and the ECSIN (European Centre for Sustainable Impact of Nanotechnology).
Job Description
The main aim of the PhD project is to improve our understanding of complex engineered nanoparticles exposure situations and toxicological effects to human health as well as the environment, and to develop and apply adequate methodologies for a sound risk assessment. The emphasis is to further develop non-conventional ways of addressing potential risks (e.g., weight of evidence approaches, expert elicitation, multi criteria decision analysis, etc.), taking into account the deep uncertainties that currently pervade every step of the risk assessment procedure.
A panel of engineered nanoparticles (metal, metal oxide and carbon-based nanoparticles) will be selected as case-studies.

PhD student for Nanoconfinement effects on chemistry and self-assembly
Radboud University Nijmegen
Job description
The aim of this project is to gain a fundamental understanding of the role of confinement on chemical reactions and self-assembly processes, in particular those occurring inside living cells. The cellular environment is dominated by interfaces and crowding, altering the fundamental kinetics of bimolecular reactions and aggregation. Currently, there is no suitable experimental platform for studying nanoconfinement in a model environment. Multiphase flow in microfluidic channels of water and oil, stabilized by suitable surfactants provides an ideal experimental tool to generate a nanoconfined environment. As a PhD student, you will use this platform to study enzymatic activity, amyloid fiber formation, polymerase chain reactions or in vitro transcription/translation. You will use fluorescence as well as other spectroscopic methods to follow reactions in the fluidic channel and compare both the kinetics and the overall outcome of reactions and self-assembly events with those occurring in a dilute solution.
Requirements
University Graduate
You must have a Masters degree in Molecular Life Sciences, Chemistry, or related discipline, molecular research experience, and a strong motivation to conduct scientific research. Preferably you should have a background in the field of physical organic chemistry or some experience in working with microfluidics.

PhD student for 'On water' reactions using microdroplets in microfluidics
Radboud University Nijmegen
Job description
On water reactions refer to the remarkable phenomenon of substantial rate accelerations when insoluble reactants are stirred in aqueous suspension. The surface of water itself has been shown to act as a catalyst in such reactions, but the full potential of this effect is currently not known. You will use extremely monodisperse droplets formed at kHz rates in fluidic devices, to control and precisely define the water surface and water-oil interface. Droplet size and frequency as well as the nature of the interface can all be varied systematically. The progress of chemical reactions can then be studied using NMR or HPLC. You will identify a number of chemical reactions that will be influenced by on water conditions and quantify the rate acceleration. These studies will, for the first time, provide a methodical analysis of the on water effect and will lay the foundation for the establishment of on water conditions as a tool in organic chemistry.
Requirements
University Graduate
You must have a Masters degree in Molecular Sciences, Chemistry, or related discipline, organic chemistry research experience, and a strong motivation to conduct scientific research.

PhD student in preclinical research focussed on research related to tumour acidosis (M/F)
Posted by:
Maastro Clinic
Maastro Clinic
Job description
In this position you will carry basic and/or translational research focussed on research
related to tumour acidosis. You will pursue the research program on tumour microenvironment
together with Prof. Lambin, the leader of the project group. The basic hypothesis of this
project is that tumour acidosis could be a therapeutically interesting target and manipulating
it by either genetic modification or drugs can improve therapeutic efficacy. You will participate
in research within MAASTRO, the research institute GROW and the faculty of Health, Medicine
and Life Sciences. There are also possibilities to be involved in phase 1 -2 clinical trials on the
same topic. Your work will involve development of genetic models to modify the extracellular
acidosis. Furthermore, pharmaceutical compounds inhibiting pumps and exchangers involved
in the acid-base homeostasis will be investigated for their effect on antitumor treatment.
Acidosis will be evaluated using in vitro (FACS) or in vivo non-invasive (optical, MRS,)
imaging using several animal and tumour models.
We are looking for a candidate with a masters degree in molecular/cell biology or
Biomedical Technology. Experience and affinity for preclinical research and in vivo work is highly
valued. Authorization to work with animals in the Netherlands (art 9 certificate, The Netherlands) and authorization to work with radioactivity (Stralingshygiëne Niv 5b, The Netherlands) is a plus but is not a prerequisite. We are looking for a positively minded scientist motivated to learn new approaches and ready to work hard to build a scientific career.
Competetive renumeration
Contract type1 year, after 1 year an evaluation will take place. If positive the contract will be extende to a total of 4 years.
OrganisationMaastro Clinic
MAASTRO, Maastricht Radiation Oncology, is a co-operation between MAASTRO clinic, the
University of Maastricht (UM) and the University Hospital Maastricht (azM) (see www.maastro.nl).
MAASTRO consists of several divisions, including MAASTRO Clinic, which offers state-of-the-art
radiotherapy to more than 3500 cancer patients each year from the mid and South Limburg area in
the Netherlands. In addition, research and training at MAASTRO is carried out in MAASTRO Physics,
MAASTRO Trials, MAASTRO School, and MAASTRO Lab.
MAASTRO Lab is a basic and translational research laboratory embedded within the GROW research
institute of the Faculty of Health, Medicine and Life Sciences at Maastricht University. Research
carried out in the past has been focused on the tumour microenvironment and EGFR signalling,
pathways of relevance to radiation oncology. MAASTRO Lab has made several important
discoveries in these fields, including demonstration that EGFR is up regulated by radiation and that
hypoxia inhibits the initiation step of mRNA translation. In addition, we have initiated translational
and clinical studies based on these results including both phase I novel treatment and molecular
imaging trials as well as a Biobank project with more than 1500 patients included.
The lab has four permanent scientists, 5 technicians, more than 5 PhD students and is fully
equipped for cell culture, molecular and cellular biology (e.g. flow cytometry, hypoxia, gene
expression, proteomics and microscopy) and working with animals (optical imager, small animal
irradiator, MRI 7 Tesla and micro-PET). MAASTRO lab has set up the necessary infrastructure for
controlled exposures to hypoxia and hypoxia/reoxygenation, including development of novel
equipment that allows rapid and controlled changes in oxygenation. Access to expertise, equipment
and resources within the much larger GROW research institute and other facilities in the University
are also readily available, including the genome centre, advanced microscopy, and the animal
facility. MAASTRO has a structural collaboration with the VU in Amsterdam on molecular PET
biomarkers, with the TU/Eindhoven on Systems Biology and a close collaboration with the
University of Toronto on research related to the Unfolded Protein Response and tumour hypoxia.
The extracellular pH of solid tumours is significantly more acidic then that of normal tissues.
Hypoxia plays an important role in tumour acidity since it allows selection of cells able to
survive a hypoxic environment with the production of acid. Hypoxia unregulated genes (CA
IX, MCT-4, NHE-1,) are responsible for extrusion of these acids towards the extracellular
microenvironment. Acidity has been shown to have a role in resistance to chemotherapy
(impaired uptake weakly basic cytostatics), proliferation and metastatic behaviour.
Furthermore, it has been demonstrated that tumour alkalinisation may represent a key target
for successful future antitumor treatments.

PhD Position in Spatial Mapping and Statistical
PhD Selection and validation of candidate serum biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of prostate cancer
Erasmus Medical Centre
Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common male malignancy and the second most common cause of cancer-related death in most European countries. In order to improve diagnosis and prognosis, a series of novel serum proteins have been identified that are differentially present in PCa. The next step is to confirm the differential expression of the peptides in an extended set of patient samples using TripleQuad Mass Spectrometry (MS) in combination with the selective reaction monitoring (SRM) method. Based on the outcome combined with data mining, promising candidate biomarkers will enter the validation phase.
In-house developed or commercially available immunoassays will be used in order to test large series of patient serum samples for biomarker expression in the various PCa disease stages to determine diagnostic and prognostic power. Tissue expression will be analyzed by immunohistochemistry on Tissue MicroArrays (TMA) and other formalin-fixed, paraffinembedded (FFPE) prostate (cancer) tissues including biopsies to study in which cell type and to what extend the candidate biomarker is produced, revealing whether marker expression, particularly in biopsies, has prognostic value.
Supervisors for this project are Dr. Guido Jenster, Dr. Theo Luider and Dr. Arno van Leenders. Erasmus MC, Rotterdam
Job-requirements
The candidate should have an MSc degree in Biomedical Sciences, Molecular Life Sciences, Biochemistry, or from a related field of training. Preferably the candidate has experience with molecular biology techniques and cell culture. English language skills are essential.
Applicants canbe nationals of any country other than The Netherlands and must not have resided or carried out their main activity in The Netherlands for more than 12 months in the 3 years immediately prior to their recruitment.
Candidates should be researchers in the first four years of their research careers measured from the date when they obtained the degree which would formally entitle them to embark on a doctorate.
Embedding and conditions of employment
The PhD student working on the project will be part of PRO-NEST, a unique European integrated multi-disciplinary training programme for young researchers interested in prostate cancer research, funded by the European Commission Seventh Framework Programme.
We offer you a temporary full-time appointment as PhD student for a period of 3 years, starting in the autumn of 2009.

PhD position in Social Software and Semantic Web
Phd Position Identification of novel DNA and RNA fusions as markers for prostate cancer
Erasmus Medical Centre
1M Illumina SNP and Affymetrix EXON array analyses of prostate cancer patient samples and xenografts, revealed a wealth of cancer-related DNA and RNA changes. Of particular interest to us are the borders of chromosomal deletions and amplifications and the genes located on these breakpoints.
Therefore, we will integrate SNP and EXON array data of the same 80 patient samples to identify DNA breakpoints resulting in aberrant gene transcripts. In addition, DNA and RNA fusions will be identified using state of the art Solexa Paired-End Deep Sequencing in which both ends of RNAs and DNA fragments are sequenced. This allows for identification of fragments in which the ends do not match according to the human genome sequence revealing potential fusion genes. Candidate fusion genes will be further studied for their occurrence rate and role in cancer initiation and progression.
