Postdoctoral Fellow, Chemistry

We currently have a postdoctoral research position open for qualified candidates who have experience in polymer synthesis. We are looking for an individual who can synthesize and then effectively analyze the properties of their engineered crosslinked polymers.  This will involve problems at the interface with supramolecular chemistry and polymers. Previous knowledge will be useful including corroborating the ratio of rotaxanes in the polymeric systems and confirming the crosslinking of poly(ethylene glycols).  These characterization techniques will be both in solution (for some portion) and in solid phase.  Experience in mentoring undergraduate/graduate students, leading lab safety efforts, and demonstrated laboratory leadership, will be considered favorably. All qualified applicants, including minorities, women, protected veterans, and individuals with disabilities are encouraged to apply.  

Ph.D. in Polymer Chemistry or Chemistry 

A current CV and two or three letters of recommendation should be submitted.
