麥吉爾大學是世界排名前 50 的公立研究型大學(2024 年 QS 國際大學排名:30)。 學校位於加拿大魁北克省蒙特婁市,歷史悠久,生活環境舒適便利。
課題組介紹。
劉倩課題組利用基於單分子定位技術的自建超解像度顯微鏡和結構光螢光顯微鏡,研究了病毒感染的過程以及過程中涉及的細胞先天免疫和防疫機制。
今年的研究生專案主要涉及使用超解像度顯微鏡技術和數學模型來研究病毒在宿主細胞中的組裝和釋放。
專案成果可發表在頂級專業期刊上。 在學習期間,您可以獲得可觀的獎學金資助,並且有很多在國際會議上交流和演講的機會。 在學習期間,您還將有機會與加拿大交流與合作**。 畢業生就業方向包括但不限於:高校及科研院所、從事傳染病防控防疫的非營利性機構、生物藥及藥物研發企業、顯微鏡成像中心等。 歡迎對跨學科研究有濃厚興趣的學生申請。
入學要求:
畢業生:(麥吉爾大學每年有兩次入學,分別是9月和1月。 看:
1)入學前需具備以下相關專業的學士、碩士或博士學位:細胞生物學、病毒學、微生物學、生物化學、生物物理學、免疫學等。 博士後需要具備獨立研究能力,並在專業期刊上發表科研成果。
2)具有生物學、影像學領域的實驗室研究和工作相關經驗,具有較強的獨立工作和科研能力。

如果您有興趣申請CSC的博士全額獎學金,請在簡歷中註明。
dr. liu is interested in understanding the interplay between viruses and the membrane bound organelles, cytoskeleton and physiological activities of the host cell, as it relates to the nature of virus infections, innate immune responses and the structure and function of a cell. specifically, her research has been focusing on mapping out the spatial and temporal organizations, dynamics and stoichiometry of the virus-host interaction networks by using super-resolution microscopy and biomathematics approaches.
her research largely depends on custom-built super-resolution microscopes, including a single-molecule localization microscope with a 10 nm spatial resolution and a confocal structure illuminated microscope().
successful candidates will work on projects that address questions in virus assembly and budding. successful candidates will h**e access to
1) custom-made super-resolution microscopes that can be adapted to your own research purposes;
2) a dynamic, highly motivated team with diverse culture and knowledge backgrounds;
3) excellent core facilities equipped with cutting-edge commercial microscopes;
4) opportunities for attending international conferences and interactions with leaders in academia, government, and industry.
applicants must h**e strong interest and motivation in interdisciplinary research.
applicants must hold a b.sc. or m.sc. degree in cell biology, virology, microbiology, biophysics, biochemistry, molecular biology, immunology or related fields by the time of the appointment starts. experience and skills in biology and imaging laboratory are highly appreciated. applicants must show proficiency in english writing and speaking.
applicants who are not canadian permanent residency or citizen are encouraged to apply for external funding.
please send your application in one .pdf file including curriculum vitae, a statement of research interest (one paragraph) and the contact information of two references to dr. liu ([email protected]).
