Fully Funded Phd Project Available at University College London
A fully-funded PhD Project is available in the new lab of Dr Bolognesi at University College London – Department of Chemistry. The project will focus on microfluidic strategies – based on interfacial transport mechanisms (e.g., diffusiophoresis/osmosis) and optical manipulation techniques – to control the motion and distribution of micro-/nano-particles within a microfluidic environment.
Microdevices for particle filtration, pre-concentration, directed delivery and pre-concentration will be developed and exploited for healthcare applications, such as bio-sensing, diagnostics and drug delivery. During the project, the student will engage in collaborations with academic and industrial project partners in UK and overseas.

Post-doc opening in paper-based diagnostics
The group is looking for a Postdoctoral Research Associate position to work at UCL on an exciting and ambitious research on biomarker preconcentration in paper-based analytical devices.
​
Point-of-care testing devices enable rapid, affordable, and widely accessible diagnosis, but their limited sensitivity makes them inappropriate for the diagnosis of early-stage diseases. To address this ongoing technological challenge, this EPSRC-funded project aims to introduce a radically new concept for biomarker preconcentration by exploiting colloid transport mechanisms based on interfacial and electrokinetic phenomena.
​
The research will be run in close collaboration with Global Access Diagnostics – a leading developer of lateral flow assays and rapid diagnostic technologies.
​​
The research associate will join Dr Bolognesi's lab in the Department of Chemistry at University College London.
​
Application deadline: 31/01/2023
Preferred starting date: mid-March 2023 (or soon after)
Duration: 18 months in the first instance
