MS-RADAM (Multiscale Phenomena in Radiation Damage) <\/span><\/strong>is a European Doctoral Network project funded by the Marie Sk\u0142odowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) programme. The project brings together leading academic and industrial partners from eight European countries (Germany, France, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, the Czech Republic, Sweden, Denmark and Georgia) to train a new generation of interdisciplinary researchers.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

MS-RADAM seeks to advance the understanding of key phenomena of radiation-induced biodamage at the nanometre scale and above, with applications in particle therapy, radiotherapy and radiation protection.<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0These include the formation of DNA chain breaks by ionising radiation, DNA repair, radiosensitisation by metal nanoparticles, cell survival and radioresistance.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The MS-RADAM research programme combines <\/span>state-of-the-art computational multiscale modelling <\/span><\/strong>(using DFT\/TDDFT methods, collision theory, molecular dynamics, stochastic dynamics, Monte Carlo and analytical methods) <\/span>and its comprehensive validation using advanced experimental techniques<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0(such as mass spectrometry, electron microscopy, radiochemistry and radiobiology experiments with biomolecular and biological systems such as oligonucleotides, DNA origami, radiosensitising nanoparticles, living cells and multicellular targets).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

MS-RADAM invites applications for <\/span>a full-time, fixed-term 36-month PhD position<\/span><\/strong>. The successful candidate will work at <\/span>the Carl von Ossietzky University <\/span><\/strong>of Oldenburg, Germany, and will be enrolled in its PhD programme. The Carl von Ossietzky University of Oldenburg is a research-oriented public university with a strong international profile and recognised strengths in energy research, environmental sciences, neuroscience and digital transformation. It offers an interdisciplinary and supportive research environment with modern infrastructure and extensive doctoral training opportunities.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The DC2 research project, entitled <\/span>“Electronic dynamics in irradiated biomolecular systems”<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0, will study<\/span><\/span>radiation-induced<\/span><\/span>electronic quantum effects<\/span><\/span><\/em>in biomolecular systems (electronic excitation, ionisation, partial charge redistribution, electron transfer and fixation, relaxation of electronic excitations, bond breaking, etc.) using<\/span><\/span>time-dependent density functional theory, interrelated with classical molecular dynamics<\/span><\/span><\/em>. The modelling results will be validated through close collaboration with experimental partners in the MS-RADAM network<\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In addition to specialised scientific training, the position offers extensive international mobility, stays at partner organisations, and training in transferable skills such as research management, communication, and professional development.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
