PhD Scholarship in New Methods for X-ray Imaging at University of Copenhagen

Overview
The Niels Bohr Institute (www.nbi.ku.dk) and the Nano-Science Center (www.nano.ku.dk) at the University of Copenhagen (www.ku.dk) invite applications for a Ph.D. scholarship in new methods for X-ray imaging.

The successful candidate is expected to work in the field of X-ray Imaging using phase contrast and dark field methods. The new methods are well suited to perform imaging of soft tissue and the project will be performed within the framework of the Innovation Consortium CIA-CT (see http://www.adm.dtu.dk/Inst/MEK/Projekter/CT_Scanning.aspx).

The focus will be developing a laboratory based system at the Niels Bohr Institute for applications within meat and other food products, but synchrotron radiation experiments at large scale international facilities must also be foreseen. There will be strong collaborations with Novo Nordisk, Danish Meat Research Association and the Technical University in Munich.

To apply, send your application and letters of recommendation to Robert Feidenhans´l, Niels Bohr Institute, Universitetsparken 5, DK-2100 Copenhagen, Denmark. Deadline is August 23, 2010. The applicant must be able to start before September 30. The application should contain a CV with lists of achievements and grades. Applications sent via e-mail (robert@fys.ku.dk) must be sent as one pdf-file. For further information, please contact Robert Feidenhans?l: robert@fys.ku.dk
