Campaign JSPS – PD
Extended Deadline: The application deadline for this campaign has been extended until October 18, 2023.
All applications to the below-mentioned positions must be made through the given websites only (LIMMS will not receive applications).
Profs. Sakai and Nishikawa Lab
Position : JSPS post-doctoral researcher.
Title : Development of mathematical model to investigate the progression of inflammation during NAFLD to NASH.
Application :
https://www.abg.asso.fr/fr/candidatOffres/show/id_offre/115972
Application Deadline : September 19, 2023
Profile of candidate: Candidates are expected to have a background in computational biology, mathematical modelling, bioinformatics, scientific programming (Python, R). The candidates at least have interests in pharmaceutical science and biological science. Skills in disease modeling, genome-scale metabolic modelling, Agent Based Modelling (ABM) will be helpful. A challenging sprit would help a lot for tackling the interdisciplinary and cutting-edge research area of the project.
Prof. Hiroshi Toshiyoshi Lab
Position : JSPS post-doctoral researcher.
Title : MEMS Wavelength Tunable VCSEL in Ultrasmall Atomic Clock for Spatio-Temporal Synchronization.
Application :
https://www.abg.asso.fr/fr/candidatOffres/show/id_offre/115971
Application Deadline : September 19, 2023
Profile of candidate: Candidates applying for this position are expected to have a strong background in fiber-optics or MEMS processing (or vacuum processes for semiconductor electronics). The former skills include optical component assembly and optical characterization based on the fiber-telecom technology. The latter includes processing skills for, for instance, photolithography, vacuum evaporation, sputtering, reactive ion etching (RIE), and deep DRIE. Skills in chemical handling in draft chambers are preferred. Master-level knowledge on MEMS actuator design is required, including the understanding of the keywords such as electrostatic forces, Gauss’s law, harmonic analysis, eigen frequency, resonant frequency, quality factor. Also the knowledge on electromagnetic physics and semiconductor physics is required, including the keywords such as the Maxwell’s optical pressure, band gap, and depletion layer of PN-junction. Those who have skills in mask design (L-Edit) and FEM analysis (COMSOL) are welcome.
Prof. Yukiko Matsunaga Lab
Position : JSPS post-doctoral researcher.
Title : Development of a new tool based on an angiogenesis system to create a new platform to quantify hydrogels physical properties and their impact on cells physiology.
Application :
https://www.abg.asso.fr/en/candidatOffres/show/id_offre/116047
Application Deadline : September 24, 2023
Profile of candidate: Since this project combines microfabrication, physics modeling, cell culture and microscopy, the candidate will need to have a multidisciplinary background between physics and biology, with some mandatory knowledge about microfabrication and cell culture skills. For observing the chips and analyzing the result, the candidate will also need some experience with confocal microscope, immunostaining and be fluent in different programming language. In a less scientific note, the student will need to be fluent in English because of the international team present in the Matsunaga lab, knowledge of Japanese is not mandatory but can be a great way to integrated into the team and in Japan in general. Some experience with managing students will be a bonus because the Matsunaga lab is linked to several exchange programs and students from around the world are coming to the lab regularly.
Prof. Ikeuchi Yoshiho Lab
Position : JSPS post-doctoral researcher.
Title : Development of Real-time Neural Network FPGA Models Connected with Living Neurons.
Application :
https://www.abg.asso.fr/fr/candidatOffres/show/id_offre/116048
Application Deadline : September 24, 2023
Profile of candidate: Candidates are expected to have a background of electric engineering. Candidates must be able to perform programming for FPGA and electric communications, and quantitatively evaluate neural network activity. Candidates are expected to understand physiology of neurons including membrane potential dynamics and plasticity.
