Open positions

1 Chemical biology and experimental therapeutics
Project: Multimodal imaging methods for testing bioactive molecules in vivo
Supervisors: Petřík Miloš Ph.D., Nový Zbyněk Ph.D.
Available: 2
Intended for: Doctoral training
Summary: The student will employ modern in vivo imaging techniques namely positron emission tomography, single-photon emission tomography, computed tomography and optical imaging in order to elucidate effect of novel anticancer or antimicrobial agents. The other part of the project will be assessment of novel radiotracers directed towards targets expressed by tumour cells or by microbial pathogens. Daily work routine will include all proper working steps common in radiopharmacy, i.e. starting with gaining an radioisotope from dedicated source, radiolabelling of selected compound, quality control (HPLC/TLC), stability tests, in vitro testing of biological properties and finally in vivo procedures (biodistribution, static/dynamic imaging). Expected previous education includes medicine, pharmacy, pharmacology or related field.
