This fixed term postdoctoral level post is to support a larger project involving radiolabelling with metal ion radioisotopes for positron emission tomography (PET) tracers development using automated devices and monolith purification protocols.
The post holder will work both in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry and in the new Positron Emission Tomography Research Centre.
The applicant will develop miniaturised procedures for galllium-68 reaction to be carried out on a microfluidic device. This role requires procedures to be developed to produce labelled PSMA on the microscale with monolith puridication.
The applicant will be expected to work as part of a research team and report on progress to all three supervisors.
Additionally the role will involve liaising with industrial and academic partners regarding design and progress on the synthetic system. Visits to the US collaborator location may be required to test the novel device.
The terms of the grant that fund this position require that employment commences as soon as possible.
To discuss this role informally, please contact Professor Steve, T 01482 465488, E s.j.archibald@hull.ac.uk
