Postdoctoral Fellowship

In the framework of an industrial funded project on the development of polymer dispersions for healthcare applications, a Postdoctoral Fellowship is available in the Polymerization Processes group at the Basque Center for Macromolecular Design and Engineering, POLYMAT Fundazioa (www.polymat.eu).

Applicants must have a PhD in Chemistry/Chemical Engineering with research experience in polymer and organic synthesis and/or colloid science.

Good command of written and spoken English is a must (if preselected, a telephone interview will be carried out before any other appointment is made). The selected candidate is expected to conduct independent research and write reports and papers.

Applications should be addressed to Prof. José M. Asua and sent via email in one single PDF to izaskun.balza@polymat.eu including:
(i) a cover letter highlighting their interest in the position.
(ii) curriculum vitae.
(iii) a 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 and the selection process will be terminated upon selection of a candidate. Ideally, the postdoc will start in January 2021.
Please note that because of the high number of applications expected, we will not be able to give individual feedback to unsuccessful applications.
