About this position
This postdoctoral project sits at the interface of organic chemistry, coordination chemistry, materials synthesis, and dosimetry. The research is part of the ESPOIR project, which aims to improve monitoring of brachytherapy treatments by developing more efficient and precise dosimeters.
The successful candidate will work on the synthesis and characterization of organic plastic scintillators and microstructured coordination polymers, and on their subsequent covalent grafting onto optical fibers. The work combines molecular design, preparation of coordination compounds, and the functionalization of optical supports for use in radiation dose verification.
The role includes hands-on experimental work in synthesis and analytical characterization, as well as optical and surface-related studies. The appointee will investigate the properties of the new materials and contribute to optimizing their integration onto optical fibers.
The project is hosted by Institut UTINAM in Besançon within Université Marie et Louis Pasteur. It offers a research environment spanning chemical synthesis, photophysical analysis, and application-oriented materials development for medical monitoring.

What's required
Applicants should hold a PhD in organic chemistry or coordination chemistry. Strong practical experience in synthetic chemistry and experimental laboratory techniques is required. Knowledge of photophysics and/or polymer chemistry would be an advantage. Previous research experience in either an academic or industrial laboratory is desirable. Candidates should demonstrate scientific rigor, autonomy, initiative, strong organizational skills, scientific curiosity, a genuine interest in research and innovation, and the ability to work effectively in a multidisciplinary team. Fluent English would be a plus.
