[FSE PhD President's Doctoral Scholarship] Molecular Quantum Sensors for High-Resolution Immunomagnetic Mapping of Cancer Cells

How precisely can we map molecular markers on a cancer cell? This question is important because the behaviour of cancer cells depends not only on which biomarkers they express and at what levels, but also on where those molecules are located within the cells and how that changes their distribution within their local environment.
