University of Bath, Department of Chemical Engineering, is advertising a PhD studentship on how molecular memory is written in molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) through atomistic simulation and reactive molecular dynamics . The project asks a fundamental question in polymer chemistry and computational materials design: how do template molecules, functional monomers, and cross-linkers organise before polymerisation, and how does the polymer network form around the template to create high-fide...

PhD opportunity for Autumn 2027 in sustainable mechanochemistry and the mechanisms of solid-state reactivity . This studentship is a collaboration between the School of Chemistry, University of Birmingham and Diamond Light Source , offering training at the interface of mechanochemical synthesis, national-facility research, and computational chemistry. The project highlights opportunities to learn X-ray diffraction , high-pressure chemistry , and related methods for probing how solids react under...
