PhD Fellowships in nanostructured polymer electrolytes for solid-state batteries

A PhD Fellowship in Chemistry is available in the Innovative Polymers Group (http://www.polymat.eu/en/groups/innovative-polymers-group) at the Basque Center for Macromolecular Design and Engineering, POLYMAT Fundazioa. The aim of this position is to advance into the synthesis and characterization of polymer nanoparticles and nanostructured polymer electrolytes for energy applications.
Applicants must must have a BSc / MSc in Chemistry or similar with a strong background in Organic Chemistry, Polymer Science, Electrochemistry and Materials Science. Those with experimental and communications skills, and enthusiasm for research and innovation are encouraged to apply. Good command of written and spoken English is a must. The selected candidate is expected to conduct research, write papers, and deliver a PhD thesis.
Applications should be addressed to Dr. Irune Villaluenga and Prof. David Mecerreyes and sent via email in one single PDF to edurne.gaston@ehu.eus until the 31st July 2022 (inclusive). Applications must indicate the title of the position on the email subject and include:
(i) a cover letter highlighting their interest in the position.
(ii) curriculum vitae.
(iii)a short description of previous research (1-2 Pages).
(iv) the names and contact addresses (e-mail) of two academic referees.
Applications will be considered upon arrival. Please note that because of the large number of applications expected, we will not be able to give individual feedback to unsuccessful applications.
