Position Overview

The successful candidate will lead experimental research focused on the design, synthesis, and electrochemical evaluation of conductive polymer-based supercapacitors for conventional and medical applications. The role involves independent work in wet chemistry and cell culture laboratories, operation of standard analytical instruments, and collaboration within a multidisciplinary research environment.

Required Expertise

• Electrochemistry — demonstrated hands‑on experience and peer‑reviewed publications, ideally related to supercapacitors or batteries, and practical experience with CV, EIS, and related techniques.
• Conductive polymers — strong understanding of synthesis, structure, and properties; experience with polypyrrole is particularly valued.
• Material characterization — proficiency with conventional analytical and spectroscopic techniques.
• Cell culture – experience in culture of human or animal cells is a plus.
• Scientific communication — proven ability to publish research findings and deliver oral presentations in English.

Additional Information

• The position offers a competitive annual salary aligned with Université Laval standards.
• The expected appointment duration is two years.
• The position is open from summer of 2026 till filled.

How to Apply

Interested applicants should submit a CV, a brief statement of research experience, and contact information for references to ze.zhang@chg.ulaval.ca
