Postdoctoral Fellow Position: Organic/Analytical Chemistry
Professor Charles L. Liotta of the Georgia Institute of Technology and Professor Ram Krishnamurthy of The Scripps Research Institute are seeking a postdoctoral fellow to begin work in 2016. Research will be primarily conducted at Georgia Tech within the Center for Chemical Evolution (CCE), a Phase II NSF-NASA Center for Chemical Innovations, which has participants at 9 institutions across the US. The CCE research projects are focused on understanding the emergence of functional biopolymers from plausible prebiotic precursors. The ideal candidate would have a PhD in organic chemistry with experience in synthesis, physical-organic chemistry and analytical characterization methods. The research will primarily focus on plausible origins of various proto-biopolymers. In addition, significant emphasis will be placed on training and mentoring, outreach and innovation/tech transfer. Women and minority candidates are strongly encouraged to apply.
To apply, please email a cover letter describing your research interests, a CV, and a list of three references to Prof. Liotta (charles.liotta@carnegie.gatech.edu). Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the position is filled.
Georgia Tech is a unit of the University System of Georgia and an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity Employer and requires compliance with Immigration Control Reform Act of 1986.
Postdoctoral Fellow Position: Aerosol Chemistry
Professor Nga Lee (Sally) Ng and Professor Charles Liotta of the Georgia Institute of Technology are seeking a postdoctoral fellow to begin work in Spring 2016. The position will focus on the origin of lipids with an emphasis on the role of particle-phase chemistry in atmospheric aerosols. The candidate will have the opportunity to perform laboratory chamber experiments
