PhD opportunity at The University of Manchester in collaboration with Peking University on marine-based carbon dioxide removal (mCDR), engineered nanoparticles, phytoplankton, clay particles, heteroaggregation, and settling in seawater conditions. The project investigates how engineered nanoparticles (ENPs) interact with phytoplankton and natural colloids such as clays, how heteroaggregates form and sink, and how these processes can be measured and modelled. The research combines experimental wo...

Postdoctoral Research Associate opportunity at the University of Cambridge in the Department of Chemistry , working with Prof. Alexander Forse on solid-state NMR and materials chemistry for the energy transition . The project is part of an ERC Starting Grant funded by UKRI and focuses on understanding and improving supercapacitor devices for energy storage. The research uses solid-state NMR spectroscopy to gain structural insights into electrode materials and energy storage mechanisms in porous ...

A PhD studentship is available in the research group of Professor Christopher Baddeley at the University of St Andrews, in collaboration with BASF (Ludwigshafen, Germany). The project sits in surface science and heterogeneous catalysis , with a focus on understanding how additives influence the surface of the active metal in heterogeneous fixed-bed hydrogenation catalysts. The research will involve detailed characterisation of catalyst structure, composition, and surface chemistry during and aft...
