PostDoc, Senior Scientist and/or PhD position in Cryo-EM Method Development in Lausanne

We are looking for a PhD student, PostDoc, or Senior Scientist to join our team to support cryo-EM data collection, using conventional and novel approaches, including diffractive imaging.

The low signal-to-noise ratio in cryo-EM is limiting its performance. We explore diffractive electron imaging technologies such as Ptychography and other 4D STEM variants to improve resolution and contrast in cryo-EM.

For this, we develop novel approaches using a 300kV Titan Krios equipped with a cold-FEG, an RF cavity for GHz beam pulsing, a Cs probe corrector, the usual autoloader and Falcon4i, and followed by super-fast hybrid pixel electron detection.

Candidates should have experience in electron microscopy, electron tomography and/or image processing, and be open to support or participate in the development of new technologies at the level of hardware, EM operation, and online data processing.
