The Surface Chemistry and Heterogeneous Catalysis Research Group at the University of Glasgow have two Ph.D. openings that are available from January 2024, with an intended start date of October 2024. The first position is an EPSRC Industrial CASE award sponsored by Johnson Matthey that seeks to use the technique…
Poly(l-lactic acid) (PLLA) is a leading commercial polymer produced from biomass, showing useful properties for plastics and fiber applications; after use, it is compostable. One area for improvement is postconsumer waste PLLA chemical recycling to monomer (CRM), i.e., the formation of l-lactide (l-LA) from waste plastic. This process is currently feasible…
The School of Life Sciences at EPFL invites applications for a faculty position in life science engineering. Appointments will be at the tenure track assistant professor level. We seek exceptional individuals who will develop and lead a research program at the forefront of the discipline and who will also be…
In this talk, I would like to present a two-fold research activity interconnected with a common string “Catalysis”. The first part would be dedicated to the fundamental mechanism for the solar irradiated water splitting in photocatalytic materials with the future prospect of Non-linear Poisson Boltzmann Solver development for the heterogenous catalytic mechanism.The relevant exploration…
When: 9 – 11 September 2024Where: University of Leicester This biennial meeting brings together researchers working across the field of inorganic chemistry. Attendees are expected to be at an early stage in their career. This includes early career academics, independent research fellows, and experienced postdoctoral researchers. All attendees are encouraged…
The NanoElectrocatalysis Group combines electrochemistry, materials science and in situ characterisation at the atomic scale to elucidate design principles for the discovery and development of novel electrocatalyst materials for the conversion and storage of renewable energy, as well as the production of sustainable fuels and chemicals. We offer stimulating working…
ASSISTANT PROFESSOR (tenure-track) and PROFESSOR (tenured) positionsin all areas of sciences including Astronomy, Chemistry, Computer Science, Earth Sciences, Life Sciences, Mathematics, and Physics. We invite applications for several open positions in all areas of the above-mentioned disciplines as well as in related and interdisciplinary fields. The closing date for applications in…
There are positions for two PhD candidates in a joint project between the groups of Prof. Ben Feringa and Prof. Edwin Otten, within the framework of the Advanced Research Center Chemical Building Blocks Consortium (ARC-CBBC). The goal of this project is to explore novel promising classes of organic active materials…
Royal Society Publishing has recently published a special double issue of Philosophical Transactions A: Exploring the length scales, timescales and chemistry of challenging materials (Part 1 & II) compiled and edited by UK Catalysis Hub members including C Richard A Catlow and Martin Wilding. The physical and chemical properties of different materials…
The advanced bio & physical sciences for low carbon energy (AB&PS) team is the central research organization for biosciences, organic synthesis, catalysis chemistry, materials sciences, biofuels, green hydrogen/ electrochemistry, and the science of carbon capture. This team also incorporates computational modelling of biosciences and chemistry. The role is an opportunity…
