The Van de Plas lab is currently offering two PhD positions in computational methods for multi-modal molecular imaging, with a focus on imaging mass spectrometry and microscopy.
The lab is located at the Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) in the Netherlands, and is part of the Delft Center for Systems and Control. Our research activities lie at the interface between (i) mathematical engineering and machine learning; (ii) analytical chemistry and instrumentation; and (iii) life sciences and medicine. We explore new ways of acquiring, processing, and mining the massive data sets that imaging mass spectrometry and other molecular imaging modalities can produce. Research topics include:
The lab has a strong network of international collaborators in both academia and industry. Collaborations include chemistry and instrument partners, such as the Mass Spectrometry Research Center and Caprioli lab at Vanderbilt University (Nashville, TN, USA), as well as medicine and biology partners, such as the Swinnen lab at the Department of Oncology of the KU Leuven University Hospital (Leuven, Belgium).
Our lab is part of several ongoing multi-disciplinary research projects. These include for example the Human BioMolecular Atlas Program (HuBMAP) of the United States’ National Institutes of Health, as well as SMART BRAIN, a FLAG-ERA JTC project through which Van de Plas lab is an associated member of Europe’s Human Brain Project Flagship.
