The IISERs represent a unique initiative in India where teaching and education are totally integrated with state-of-the-art research nurturing both curiosity and creativity in an intellectually vibrant atmosphere of research. Each IISER is an autonomous institution awarding its own Masters and Doctoral degrees.
Indian Institute of Science Education and ResearchPune is a premier autonomous Institution established by the Ministry of Human Resource Development, Government of India, for promotion of high quality science education and research in the country
- Project title : “Micro-cantilever based calorimetric biosensor for decentralized diagnostics and drug discovery using a novel detection mechanism
- Funding Agency : Wellcome Trust–DBT India Alliance
- PI : Dr P.K.Singh
- Position : Post – Doctoral Fellow
- No of Post : One
- Desired Profile : Ph.D.
- Preferred : Expertise in functionalization of
surfaces for biosensor applications will be given
- Job requirement : We have developed instrumentation for detecting enzyme-substrate reaction with a combination of micro-cantilever based and tuning-fork force sensing methodology. At this stage of the project we need to perform experiments on various enzyme-substrate pairs along with controls. Quantification of data in terms of minimum detectable substrate concentration is focus of this work. We are in a need of a post-doctoral fellow trained in Biochemistry of enzyme-substrate reactions, preferably having work experience in the area of biosensors that employ conventional transduction methods. We wish to combine his/her knowledge of enzyme-substrate reaction kinetics with new instrumentation developed in our lab.
