The Delft Technology Fellowship offers high-profile, tenure-track positions to outstanding female academic researchers in research themes in which the faculties of Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) want to be strengthened. As a fellow, you will be offered the unique chance to establish your own research programme of international repute, including a generous start-up grant. The fellowships are awarded at Full, Associate or Assistant professor level.

More information on the fellowship can be found here.

For the Bionanoscience Department, the following research theme is available:
Quantitative biology: from molecules to tissues
The Department of Bionanoscience invites applications from outstanding scientists at any career stage (tenure-track to full professor), who are interested in quantitative biology at the smallest scales (molecules to tissues). Candidates should be highly collaborative, and thrive in the open and interdisciplinary environment we offer. Possible topics include, but are not limited to: biophysics, biochemistry, chromosome biology, genetic engineering, bioinformatics, synthetic biology, developmental biology, immunology, virology, microbiology, smart biomaterials, or any other topic that allows for synergistic interactions with the 17 other research groups in our department. Successful candidates are expected to foster an independent and cutting edge research program, and enthusiastically teach and develop courses/curricula in our BSc and MSc programs.  By offering competitive start-up packages, we promote the careers of our new hires. We strive to build a department that reflects the diversity of society, and encourage applications from traditionally underrepresented groups, such as those coming from ethnic, cultural, gender, sexual orientation, or religious minorities; from people with disabilities, or from people from disadvantaged socioeconomic backgrounds. We are happy to make applying easier through accommodation in the recruitment process.

For the Quantum Nanoscience department, the following research theme is available:
Experimental Quantum Nanoscience
The potential of quantum technology extends far beyond computation and communication. By focusing on basic research on various manifestations of quantum physics, the Department Quantum Nanoscience aims to offer avenues for quantum innovation in the broadest sense. Relevant focus areas for this search include new strategies to design, build and characterise quantum materials, the robust conversion of quantum information between different systems by means of transduction, and novel avenues to exploit the strong responsiveness of quantum system towards improved sensing devices. These areas of research represent central components for any form of quantum technologies and play a unique role in our ongoing endeavor to unlock the tremendous potential for innovation that lies in the quantum world.
We are looking for a promising scientist with recognized experimental expertise in any of these areas from fundamental and/or technological perspectives. We are interested in particular in candidates whose research focuses on the study of novel applications of quantum matter effects, such as those based on topology, symmetry and coherence, as well as of high-responsiveness quantum sensors and transducers. The research direction of the candidate should allow for significant synergies with the existing activities within the department QN.
