RESEARCH TOPIC DESCRIPTION<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Our laboratory located at IMDEA Nanociencia is focused on intracellular temperature measurements. We strongly believe that intracellular temperature can be used as source of important information for both disease diagnostic and treatment (theragnostic). The lab research lines involve the development of optics nanothermometers and their applications in cell culture, animals and, in the future, clinical applications. Currently, the main research area is the cancer discrimination based on intracellular temperature measurements. Together with this, the development of nanoparticles capable of measure intracellular temperature and generate heat simultaneously is performed to induce selective cancer cell death. Our lab and research lines combine Optics, Nanotechnology and Molecular Biology, each of the play a fundamental role.<\/p>\n

The applicant is expected to write an interdisciplinary research proposal in the field of intracellular temperature measurements to diagnose or\/and to treat cancer or inflammatory conditions to metabolic disorders. We can work with simulation (simulate the performance of nanothermometers), we can do nanotechnology experiments (design new nanothermometers), cell culture experiments (to unravel diseases mechanism based on intracellular temperature) and animal experiments (treat diseases based on intracellular temperature).<\/p>\n
