About this position

Postdoctoral research associate position in flexible/wearable thermoelectric devices with a collaborative project between Professor Yanliang Zhang at the University of Notre Dame and Professor Jeff Snyder at Northwestern University.

The team is developing high-performance and flexible organic thermoelectric devices for personal cooling and energy harvesting. The role is suited to candidates with a strong background in thermoelectric materials, device fabrication, ink formulation, printing, and thermal/thermoelectric characterization.

Applicants should hold a PhD in Science, Engineering, or a related field and demonstrate strong scientific productivity through publications in reputable peer-reviewed journals. Excellent communication and teamwork skills are also emphasized.

This is a postdoctoral opening rather than a PhD or master's call. The post does not specify stipend, tuition, or other funding details, but it is presented as a research associate position within an interdisciplinary, world-class training environment.

To apply, send a CV, a cover letter describing research interests and career goals, and contact information for three references to [email protected]. Review begins immediately and continues until the position is filled.

Funding details

Postdoctoral research associate position; funding details, stipend, and benefits are not specified in the post.

What's required

PhD in Science, Engineering, or a related field; strong background in thermoelectric materials and device fabrication; experience with ink formulation, printing, and characterizations; thermal and thermoelectric characterizations; flexible/wearable thermoelectric device design and fabrication; proven scientific productivity with publications in reputable peer-reviewed journals; excellent communication skills and ability to work collaboratively in a team environment.
