* salary according to Remuneration level 13 TV-L
* fixed-term
As part of a co-operation project with the company Dr. Kurt Wolff GmbH & Co. KG, we are looking for a dedicated academic co-worker for the investigation of novel remineralisation agents in the context of dental research. This interdisciplinary research project deals with basic mechanisms of de- and remineralisation on human teeth. Main goal is the development of new biomimetic strategies for caries prophylaxis and tooth preservation.
The opportunity of attaining a doctorate is given.
Your Tasks
Design, establishment and realisation of standardised in-vitro experiments to analyse remineralisation processes on tooth surfaces (90 %):
* establishment of a flow method for in situ observation of remineralisation processes by means of atomic force microscopy
* quantitative characterisation of remineralisation processes on tooth surfaces by means of confocal laser scanning microscopy (LSM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM)
* application of complementary techniques such as electrochemical, spectroscopic and diffractometric methods
* investigation of synergistic remineralisation effects in the presence of of hydroxyapatite and other calcium compounds
* production of hydroxyapatite in the presence of modifiers
* development and testing of innovative model toothpastes and model mouthwashes
Teaching (5 %)
Supervision of an X-ray reflectometer (5 %)
Employment is conducive to scientific qualification.
We offer
* salary according to Remuneration level 13 TV-L
* fixed-term (36 months) (§ 2 (1) sentence 1 of the WissZeitVG; in accordance with the provisions of the WissZeitVG and the Agreement on Satisfactory Conditions of Employment, the length of contract may differ in individual cases)
