NRL Nanoparticle-Biomolecular Interfacial Phenomena

Due: May 1, 2025

$99,200

Description

An opportunity exists in the Center for Bio/Molecular Science and Engineering of the US Naval Research Laboratory to undertake research in creating nanoparticle-enzyme systems for cell-free synthetic biology applications. This research will exploit unique phenomena at the nanomaterial- and especially nanoparticle-biomolecular interface. It focuses on how biomolecular processes, and especially enzyme activity, are altered or enhanced at this interface. Relevant studies include assembling enzymatic cascades around nanoparticles for...

Grantor Contact InformationIgor Langier Medintz, Phone: 202.404.6046Grantor Emailigor.l.medintz.civ@us.navy.milOther Grantor InformationThe NRC Research Associateship Programs (RAP) are prestigious postdoctoral and senior research awards designed to provide promising scientists and engineers with high-quality research opportunities at federal laboratories and affiliated institutions. Conducted by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine's Fellowships Office since 1954, these programs offer a comprehensive research experience through a rigorous selection process. The programs aim to: 1) Offer promising postdoctoral and senior scientists/engineers the chance to pursue self-directed research aligned with sponsoring laboratories' goals, 2) Enhance comprehensive research efforts of participating laboratories, 3) Provide recent doctoral graduates a platform for focused research collaboration with permanent laboratory staff, and 4) Foster professional growth by providing opportunities to gain skills, experience, and connections with leading scientists, ultimately enhancing career prospects in academia, industry, or government research roles. The programs provide mentorship, access to state-of-the-art facilities, and opportunities to influence government policy.
