Solution Characterization of Supramolecular Assemblies and Nano-carriers by
Analytical Ultracentrifugation at the Eindhoven University of Technology:
</SPAN><SPAN lang=EN-GB style="FONT-WEIGHT: normal">A vacancy has arisen as part
of a national VICI research grant as well as a project of the Dutch Polymer
Institute (DPI) for a post-doctoral research assistant (or group leader
position) in the group of Prof U. S. Schubert at the Eindhoven University of
Technology (Netherlands – http://www.schubert-group.com). The group has active
research interests in the areas of supramolecular assemblies and (bio-)polymers,
combinatorial material science as well as (bio‑)nanotechnology. The postdoctoral
position involves the investigation of the </SPAN><SPAN

and is connected to several synthetic supramolecular projects and both a
nano-characterization and a nano-manipulation project. Moreover, it is part of a
larger program on novel polymeric nano-carriers for drug delivery applications.
As main method analytical ultracentrifugation will
be used. Both sedimentation equilibrium and sedimentation velocity experiments
will be performed to yield information on the aggregate
size, the percentage of the different aggregates present and, for reversibly
aggregated systems, the corresponding association constants.
Furthermore, in case of systems with stable multiple sized aggregates, the
separation and isolation of the different aggregates will be
performed using preparative ultracentrifugation and size exclusion methods.
A further investigation of the different species will be carried out by light
scattering and (cryo)TEM. For the polymeric nano-carriers the degree of loading
with drug molecules as well as the release characteristics will be
investigated.</SPAN><SPAN style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US">
