Would you like to build the future? Join CIDETEC! CIDETEC is a technology centre that brings together three leading international centres in the fields of Energy Storage, Surface Engineering and Nanomedicine. For more than 25 years, we have been working with leading companies to develop technology that makes the world a better place.
A cutting-edge, diverse and international centre awaits you!
CIDETEC Nanomedicine is seeking to recruit a person to join its Biomaterials Unit. A researcher to work on the Encapsulation Systems line, able to develop new polymer-based biomaterials with regard to both their synthesis/production and characterisation, with experience in rheological/mechanical properties. The researcher will be involved in developing several types of products (health, cosmetics, pharmaceutical) and generating new ideas.
If you want to be part of this revolution, we are waiting for you!
CIDETEC Nanomedicine is an applied research centre specialising in the development of innovative technologies and materials in the field of biomedicine. We have six patent families with potential application in pharmacy, cosmetics and health products, and at the same time we continue researching innovative lines such as non-viral vectors or antimicrobial resistance. The researcher’s work will be related to the line specialising in encapsulation systems.
Your contribution
You will form part of a state-of-the-art research centre geared to sustainability and the circular economy, which develops innovative materials in the field of biomedicine. Its direct contact with industry enables it to complete the technology transfer process, reducing time-to-market.
You will work on training and/or business transfer projects. You must be capable of carrying out several lines of research simultaneously, optimising resources and maximising results and helping maintain and improve the quality system.
The researcher will work independently, according to the work plan defined.
They will be responsible for developing new biomaterials, carrying out both synthesis/production and characterisation of these biomaterials for use as printable biomaterials and a drug delivery system. They must ensure relational monitoring of the technical results with clients and/or collaborators and be able to summarise and present the results very clearly in reports and PowerPoint presentations.
They will also be involved in:
