Post-Doctoral Fellow in Chemistry and Chemical Biology (Mason Lab)

Position Description

The Mason Lab invites applications for a Postdoctoral Fellow position. The Mason group applies the tools of synthetic chemistry and nanoscience to design materials that address basic science challenges in energy and medicine, with a particular emphasis on the development of chemical strategies to manipulate entropic effects, phase transitions, and porosity. The Postdoctoral Fellow will be responsible for leading new research directions in the development of porous materials for aqueous-phase gas transport applications.

Responsibilities:

1. Conduct research in materials chemistry.
2. Publish and present research findings in high-quality scientific journals and conferences.
3. Collaborate with faculty, researchers, and students on interdisciplinary research projects.
4. Contribute to the preparation of research proposals.
5. Participate in teaching and mentoring activities for undergraduate and graduate students.

Basic Qualifications

1. A Ph.D. in a relevant field
2. Demonstrated record of research achievement.
3. Strong written and oral communication skills.
4. Ability to work independently and as part of a team.

Interested candidates should submit a cover letter, CV, a brief research proposal, and two to three references' names and contact information. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis until the position is filled.

Please note: This position is contingent upon funding and satisfactory performance.
