    Scientists are being sought for developing new experiments in the area of electron-enhanced nuclear magnetic resonance. This so-called dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) NMR experiment subjects electrons in the sample to microwave irradiation, and then uses the ensuing nuclear polarization enhancement to open new analytical and metabolic frontiers in NMR. Topics involved in this research will include developing new forms of quantum control between spins to enable a more efficient electron-->nuclear polarization transfer, automation, cryogenics, and the design and construction of radiofrequency and microwave components.  Programming experience also required. Applications of this project to solve both analytical and biophysical problems are also envisioned.

We are addressing these questions using a combination of both experimental biology (including molecular biology, cell biology, stem cell biology, and neurobiology) and computational biology/bioinformatics. PhD projects focused on specific projects related to these questions are available.

  • Dr. Yuval Ronen | link for homepage

    Department of Condensed Matter Physics
    PhD position

    Our lab investigates quantum phenomena which focus on the interplay between correlations and topology. This intriguing interplay allows to develop unique realizations of non-abelian quasi-particles (qps) which are neither Boson nor Fermion-like. Among the phases which host these qps are the well-known fractional quantum Hall effect, topological superconductivity, and the recently emerging field of moire-superlattcies (twistronics). We are developing experiments in these arrowheads to unravel this intriguing physics.

    This line of research often utilizes quantum materials whose reduced dimensionality enhances quantum effects. We profit from the use of various van der Waals (vdW) materials (graphene, hBN, TMDs, etc.) as well as high-mobility two-dimensional GaAs electron gas, which are both grown in our department. Fabrication is performed in a state-of-the-art clean room facility, specially designed for vdW materials nanofabrication.

    These devices will be measured with transport techniques including quantum Hall interferometry, Josephson interferometry, capacitance measurements, thermal transport, and shot noise measurements. These measurements require high magnetic fields and low electron temperatures. Our lab will be equipped with an 8mK wet dilution refrigerator with a 20T magnet, a 7mK dry dilution with a 3D vector magnet, as well as a variable temperature cryostat.

    The goal of our research is to understand how pancreatic beta cells perform their unique functions. Beta cells are the only cell in the body capable of significant production of insulin. They store insulin intracellularly, releasing it to the bloodstream in response to a variety of physiological stimuli including nutrients such as glucose and fatty acids, hormones and neurotransmitters.

    Postdoc position

    We are looking for skilled and motivated postdocs to lead a project on gene amplification evolution in cancer. This project  requires knowledge in experimental biology, microscopy and image analysis, and a variety of sequencing methodologies.

    The candidate should have experience in cell culture work, molecular biology, and microscopy.

    Expertise in bioinformatic analyses of DNA and RNA sequencing is a big advantage.

    Our lab studies how catastrophic numerical and structural chromosome aberrations are formed in cancer. Such chromosome defects are found in the majority of human tumors and are strong drivers of cancer initiation, growth, metastasis, and therapy resistance. By understanding the underlying mechanisms of chromosome alterations, we aim to identify targetable vulnerabilities to be used for novel therapy design.

    Data analysis from the ATLAS experiment.

    Heavy Ion Physics is about exploring what the Strong Force Interaction is. Our World is not only confined to two- and three-quark particles. Imagine a system built of as many quarks as you want. Do we know enough to tell how such a system would behave? Would it be a quark-gluon plasma, a hadronic gas, or liquid? Does QCD do a good job predicting its properties, or...

    You can help to find answers to these and many other questions. About one month in a year, the LHC collides ions of heavy elements. Each of these collisions is a mini-universe that sends hundreds of times more particles into ATLAS detector than a proton-proton interaction. You can be a part of a team to dive into this sea of quarks and gluons and find an answer to one of many questions.

    Heavy-ion data from the ATLAS experiment is an excellent opportunity for students seeking an academic carrier to do research and get fantastic visibility in the physics community. But if you want to learn the most sophisticated data analysis, create your own algorithms, and get into the world of finance, data mining or high-tech, it's a place for you too.

    Clocks resetting

    How the clock integrates different resetting cues? Are there differences in resetting capacity between different cell types? How different pharmaceutics influence the clock? Can it be harnessed to improve therapy?

    Interactions between circadian clocks and exercise physiology

    We employ various clock mutant mouse models with different light regimens to characterize the interaction between clocks and exercise. Further, we have designed and built fully automated time-controlled Running Wheels that can be programmed in advance to be in locked or unlocked positions for designated times to enable scheduled training of animals without manual interventions.

    Oxygen and Circadian Clocks

    How does chronic exposure to hypoxia, as occurs with people living at high altitude, affects the human clock? How oxygen is connected to exercise performance and is there a time preference for high altitude training? (Tripartite model for performance: Clocks, oxygen, and exercise) How does HIF-1a endogenously integrate with circadian clock complexes during the circadian cycle? How do HIF-1a and BMAL1 regulate rhythmic transcriptome?

    • Circadian exercise 
    • In the past 7 years, we studied the cross-talk between metabolism and circadian rhythms, leading us to venture into other fields, like exercise biology. Some exciting questions, both related to physiology and molecular mechanism, that stem from our recent publications (Adamovich et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 2021; Ezagouri et al., Cell Metabolism, 2019) are now under investigation.

    Our research centers on the theory of complex systems and biophysics, applied to a broad spectrum of problems, mainly in the context of the physics of living systems. Our research is often done in collaboration with experimental groups. Key themes of our lab include mathematical modeling of cell growth and mechanics, both at the single-cell level and the population level, stochastic processes, disordered systems, and coarse-grained modeling of complex processes.
