Brief description of the Research Team / Research Group / Department
Join MonroyLab – Translational Biophysics!

We are an interdisciplinary research team exploring the biophysics of the cell nucleus through a quantitative, integrative approach, bridging biology and physics to understand its role in human disease, particularly cancer. Based at Complutense University of Madrid, we are affiliated with the Institute for Biomedical Research Hospital Doce de Octubre (Imas12), one of Spain’s leading medical research centers.

Our research program, recognized with a Synergy Grant by Comunidad de Madrid, hosts young researchers from MSCA and ERC programs. We investigate the biophysical mechanisms of chromatin and nuclear metabolism, developing advanced technologies to study nuclear mechanics in cancer.

Join us at the forefront of biological physics, physiomics, epigenetics, and cancer research in MonroyLab, the research facility of Prof. Francisco Monroy (Translational Biophysics at UCM-Imas12).

? Exciting opportunities for talented early-career researchers!
Research lines / projects proposed
We are seeking candidates with a strong background in experimental physics, biological physics, and/or complex systems physics to develop a research project on the Physics of the Cell Nucleus. Ideal candidates should have experience in optical traps, microrheology, and biophysical techniques, particularly optical microscopy platforms (Life imaging superresolution, STED, interferential microscopy). Additional valued skills include expertise in quantitative microscopy tools, such as deep image and signal processing, statistical mechanics, and stochastic mechanics implemented in cutting-edge computational approaches.
