We have an opening for a post-doctoral Research Fellow to work on an EPSRC funded multicentre project on Emergent Nanomaterials.

The PDRA will lead on developing the functionality of Emergent Nanoparticles. This will relate to electrochemistry, fuel cell and electrolysis electrodes, heterogeneous catalysis and physical characterization. This will be underpinned by synthesis and characterisation efforts.

This position will be available from 1st January 2020 or as soon as possible thereafter and is available for two years in the first instance.

We would expect you to have a PhD in chemistry, materials, physics or engineering and experience relevant to energy materials synthesis, processing and characterization.
