Postdoctoral POSITION
A postdoctoral position is available in the Experimental Chemistry Cluster (ECC) at the Donostia International Physics Center (DIPC) beginning the 1st September 2018. The work will be under the direction of Prof. Fabienne Barroso, Prof. Luca Salassa and Dr. Marek Grzelczak and will be developed within multidisciplinary areas. The aim of the project is at synthesizing cyclic polymers for complexing with inorganic substrates. The work will include synthesis of organic molecules, polymerization reactions, polymer functionalization, functionalization of gold nanoparticles and metal complexes.

We are looking for a motivated candidate fulfilling the following requirements:

1) PhD in Chemistry
2) Strong background in organic chemistry and polymer science
3) Good command of written and spoken English


Applications should be sent to Prof. Barroso at fbarroso AT ehu.eus before 20th August 2018. They will be evaluated upon arrival. Applications should include:

1) curriculum vitae
2) a short description of previous research
3) the names and contact addresses (e-mail) of two academic referees

Please note that because of the large number of applications expected, we will not be able to give individual feedback to unsuccessful applications.
