The Adolphe Merkle Institute (www.am-institute.ch)
is an established independent center of competence associated with the
University of Fribourg. AMI prides itself with an unusual blend of
fundamental and application-oriented research within a multidisciplinary
setting and strives to be a leader in interdisciplinary research on
soft nanoscience. To complete our team, we are looking for a
Postdoctoral researcher (Polymer Chemistry)
[Job code: AMI-NB-004]
The Macromolecular Chemistry Group (Prof. Nico Bruns) invites
applications for a postdoctoral researcher (m/f) for a project on
self-healing polymer membranes. In particular, you will investigate
polymer networks as self-sealing layer on waterproof and breathable
membranes. The study will involve the development of new monomer
formulations to coat membranes in close collaboration with several
industrial partners.
You should hold a PhD degree in Chemistry and ideally be a polymer
chemist with a strong background and experimental expertise in polymer
synthesis, polymer processing, polymer characterization and testing of
materials’ properties. You should be interested in driving a
collaborative project between academia and industry forward. Good
English language skills (written and oral) and an excellent track record
of publications in peer-reviewed high quality journals are required.
We offer an interdisciplinary research environment at the interface of
materials science, polymer chemistry and bionanotechnology,
well-equipped laboratories, excellent working conditions and a
competitive salary. The position will start as soon as possible and is
initially funded for 12 months, with the possibility for an extension by
further 6 months.
Please send your complete documentation (reference AMI-NB-004;
including letter of motivation, CV, list of publications and contact
details of at least two academic references) until 7.2.2016 to: Adolphe
Merkle Institute, University of Fribourg, ami-applications@unifr.ch.
For additional information about the position, please contact: Prof. Nico Bruns, nico.bruns@unifr.ch.
