CAARE is a European Doctoral Networks project and deals with the characterization and recovery of bionanoparticles for vaccine delivery and gene therapy. Overall, 14 Doctoral Candidates will be trained at seven institutions in five European countries and will be supported by a network of industrial and academic partners.

At acib you will deal with the development of a chromatographic separation method with ultra-high capacity and throughput for purification of bionanoparticles. You will develop a capture method for bionanoparticles which is suitable for platform processes as well as a method for estimation of all parameters for scale up. In addition, you will do environmental and economic metrics (process mass intensity and cost-of-goods) of the new process compared to conventional processes and determine the characteristics of the bionanoparticles (size, composition, cargo, etc.) obtained by convective or 3D-printed material with methods developed within the consortium.

You are working in an enjoyable work climate, have numerous possibilities for further education and personal development. You are part of a challenging and helpful work environment full of team spirit and enthusiasm for your job. You expand your expertise and bridge your science to industry. We offer you fully flexible working hours and a package of voluntary social benefits (e.g. meal vouchers or tickets for public transport) are also part of our modern corporate culture. And not to forget: You make your research visible and broaden your network!

In the best way you have completed a Master’s degree or Diploma for a recognized University in (Bio)Chemical Engineering or Biotechnology or related fields. Research experiences in the following areas would be fine:

• Chemical Engineering
• Biochemical Engineering
• Chromatography
• Bioprocess Engineering
• Downstream processing

• IMPORTANT: The Mobility Rule for European Doctoral Networks applies: researchers must not have resided or carried out their main activity (work, studies, etc.) in Austria for more than twelve months in the three years immediately before the start of employment

• The annual gross salary is EUR 32.856,32.
• This corresponds to a monthly net amount of EUR 1.774,93 (paid 14 times a year).
