Open postdoctoral positions in Research Area III of the Cluster of Excellence RESOLV (m,f,x)

RESOLV has established a structured postdoctoral training platform with an emphasis on both individual research training and career coaching in academia, industry, and entrepreneurship. Applications for full-time postdoctoral researchers for temporary subprojects (2 years, 39.83 h/week, payment according to public service’s wage agreement TV-L E13) are welcome.
extent: full-time
duration: temporary beginning: as soon as possible

Your tasks:

• In Research Area III, RESOLV tackles the challenge of how to control conformational dynamics and chemical reactivity under stressed solvent conditions, which is of key importance for the development and optimization of chemical processes. Advancing the understanding of solvation under extreme conditions will grant access to new technological applications, ranging from homogeneous and (bio-)catalysis, to the stabilization of bio-products. These studies also strongly impact on other disciplines such as astrochemistry, astrobiology and green chemistry.

Your profile

• You hold a full university degree with a doctorate in Chemistry, Physics, Biochemistry, Chemical Engineering or comparable subjects.
• You are fascinated by the interdisciplinary research field Solvation Science.
• You have experience in one of the following disciplines: bio- or homogenous catalysis, synthesis (cryo-, organic or coordination chemistry), electrochemistry, (time-resolved) spectroscopic techniques, microscopy at interfaces and on surfaces, theoretical chemistry (simulations or electronic structure calculations), or chemical engineering (thermodynamic measurements and modelling).
• You have a solid knowledge of English in a professional environment (at least level B2, oral and written).
