Gothenburg, Västra Götaland, Sweden Chalmers Tekniska Högskola AB Full time

We are seeking a highly motivated PhD student to join our research group in the field of controlling chemical reactivity under confinement.

About the Project

This project will explore the differences in how photochemical reactions proceed in solution, under spatial confinement within nanoscale boxes, and under optical confinement within optically resonant microcavities.

You will work on an interdisciplinary project that combines synthetic organic chemistry, photochemistry, and supramolecular chemistry, with a focus on developing new materials and techniques for controlling chemical reactivity.

Your main responsibilities will include pursuing your doctoral studies, teaching at Chalmers' undergraduate level, and contributing to the research project.

Required Skills and Qualifications

To qualify for this position, you must have a master's level degree corresponding to at least 240 higher education credits in a relevant field and sound verbal and written communication skills in English.

It is meritorious if you have experience in organic synthesis, photochemistry, and/or host-guest chemistry.

Benefits

As a researcher at Chalmers, you will have access to state-of-the-art facilities and a collaborative research environment.

Chalmers offers a range of benefits, including a competitive salary, comprehensive health insurance, and opportunities for professional development.

How to Apply

Applications should be submitted electronically and attached as PDF-files. Please ensure that your application includes a CV, personal letter, and any additional documents required by the department.
