postdoct signal proc. for an electronic biochip locatie: leuven |
| SISTA-BIOMED is delighted to offer a postdoctoral fellowship on signal processing for an electronic biosensor chip. The work will be performed in close collaboration with the R&D project “Biosensor Prototyping” of NXP Semiconductors. NXP is developing an electronic biosensor technology based on CMOS chips with ten thousands to millions of nano-electrodes that serve as nano-capacitors. Probe molecules, immobilized on the nano-electrodes’ surfaces, capture specific target molecules from a fluid to be analyzed. The tiny capacitance changes caused by the single-molecule binding events are measured with on-chip electronic circuits. The sensor chips produce data streams containing large amounts of information about the fluid to be analyzed. The aim of the project is to analyze the data streams and to develop algorithms to extract information relevant for building diagnostic test applications. This includes statistical signal analyses, noise reduction and non-linear filtering, data modeling, information theoretical methods, and coupling to meta-data. The close proximity of the NXP R&D group in Leuven provides ample opportunity for frequent interactions to discuss ideas and methods, and to run tests with real-time sensor data. |
