Postdoctoral position in "Matrix-Assisted DOSY" at the University of
Manchester
========================================================================
=======
Applications are invited for an EPSRC-funded postdoctoral research
associateship, to work with Dr Mathias Nilsson and Professor Gareth
Morris on the development of techniques in diffusion-ordered NMR
spectroscopy (DOSY). The project will combine high quality NMR
measurements using world-class facilities in the School of Chemistry,
theoretical analysis, pulse sequence development, and multivariate
analysis, and offers an excellent opportunity for a suitable
candidate to build a wide NMR skill set. Equipment available includes
10 Bruker and Varian spectrometers at 300, 400 and 500 MHz field
strengths.
The position is available from 1 May 2010 and will be for up to 36
months, at a salary of £28,983 - £35,646 p.a.
The appointee will have, or be about to obtain, a doctoral degree in
a relevant subject (e.g. Chemistry, Physics, Engineering, Computer
Science), good written and oral communication skills, the ability to
function efficiently as part of a team, and experience in and
understanding of some or all of:
NMR methods, especially DOSY and others involving pulsed field
gradients
software for NMR data processing
NMR spectrometer hardware
surface chemistry/chemical interactions
Unix and C programming
Mathematica and Matlab programming
