Location: Olink part of Thermo Fisher Scientific Uppsala Sweden (On site).
Duration: JanJune 2026
Supervisor: Emmy Rannikko
Project Overview
Are you curious about how sample handling can influence biomarker measurements and eager to contribute to optimizing analytical methods This thesis project explores the role of dilution in immunoassays and how varying dilution levels can affect precision bias and signal response. You will combine experimental work with data analysis and statistical modeling in a research-oriented environment.
Objectives
Data Analysis: Review historical QC data to identify patterns and correlations between samples and controls.
Experimental Work: Test different dilution levels on selected assays and analyze effects on signal response precision and robustness.
Statistical Modeling: Model response curves and evaluate linearity and assay performance.
Validation: Compare results between samples and controls to draw practical conclusions.
Why Its Exciting
The findings will provide valuable insights into how dilution impacts immunoassay dynamics and can be used to improve analytical quality. Youll gain hands-on experience in method development data analysis and experimental techniques central to bioanalysis and diagnostics.
