Cotutelle PhD in PEM Fuel Cell Scale-Transfer Modelling and Durability Coventry University in United Kingdom

The School of Chemistry at the University of St Andrews, in collaboration with industrial partner Johnson Matthey, is advertising 4 fully funded international PhD studentships in a platinum group metals (PGM) cluster. The cluster is focused on materials chemistry and aims to deliver cutting-edge advances in PGM-based materials and compounds, supported by state-of-the-art structural, physical, and microstructural characterisation facilities and links to central facilities. Research projects avail...

CEA Grenoble is advertising a postdoctoral position in electrochemistry and sodium-ion batteries focused on the development of a reliable reference electrode sensor for Na-ion cells. The project aims to design, implement, and validate a novel electrochemical sensor for internal cell measurements, enabling in situ and operando characterization of battery performance, ageing, and degradation mechanisms. The successful candidate will work on cell instrumentation, cycling tests under different condi...
