PhD Fellowship, Analytical / Physical Chemistry, University of Geneva

PhD Fellowship

Description : The fellowship will support a student working on aggregation of colloidal particles in the presence of polyelectrolytes and multivalent ions. The project relies on light scattering and fits into the overall themes of the research group in the area of the physical and analytical chemistry of polyelectrolytes and interfaces. The research is primarily experimentally oriented and is complemented by other state-of-the-art experimental tools, including scattering techniques and surface sensitive tools. Prerequisites are masters or diploma preferentially in chemistry, but a degree in physics or engineering is equally welcome. Experience with light scattering and/or computer programming represent an advantage. Enthusiasm for top-quality research and teaching is as important as good oral and written communication skills. The successful candidate will encounter an active research group, well-equipped laboratories, and excellent working conditions. Earliest starting date is June 1, 2009, or as agreed. Applications are considered from now on until the position is filled.
