Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) has revolutionised structural biology by revealing the 3D structures of biological macromolecules. In this project at the intersection of quantum physics and life sciences, we further expand the capabilities of biological TEM by increasing its signal-to-noise ratio. To this end, we control the wave function of free-space electrons inside a TEM using high-power lasers.
This 2-year postdoctoral/Scientist II position is at the centre of the science-industry collaboration between WIS and Thermo Fisher, a leading TEM manufacturer, with time split 50/50 between the two locations.
