This project is part of the Wallenberg Wood Science Center, a leading research initiative focused on creating new materials from trees.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop and adapt confocal microscopy techniques for assessing wood cell wall porosity
- Collaborate with research groups on valorization of biomass, solid biomaterial characterization, and imaging techniques
- Contribute to the development of analytical tools for separation and recovery of wood components
Qualifications
- PhD degree in biomass processing and valorization or solid biomaterial characterization
- Experience with advanced microscopy and/or other imaging techniques, particularly FRAP
- Excellent problem-solving skills, collaboration, and self-motivation
Contract Terms
This postdoctoral position is a full-time temporary employment for two years. Chalmers offers a stimulating and collaborative work environment. The successful candidate will be part of a multidisciplinary team committed to advancing the field of biomass valorization and wood characterization.
