We are pleased to announce an open 4-year fully funded PhD position (FPI) at the Department of Applied Physics, University of Barcelona, within the project PID NB-I00 – Beam Engineering and Acousto-Optic Control for Optical Nanoscopy (BEACON), funded by the Spanish State Research Agency (AEI).

The PhD project will focus on the development of advanced optical instrumentation for super-resolution fluorescence microscopy, with particular emphasis on AOD-based MINFLUX microscopy and the parallelization of RESOLFT microscopy. The project is predominantly experimental and involves the development and characterization of novel optical systems for fluorescence imaging.

Candidate profile

- MSc in Physics, Photonics, Optical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, or a related discipline.
- Strong interest in experimental optics and photonics.
- Programming skills (Python, MATLAB or similar) are desirable.

Gross salary

- 4-year FPI predoctoral contract.
- Years 1–2: €19,000/year
- Years 3–4: €25,500/year
