This postdoctoral project at the CNRS explores how to control the permeability of water-in-water emulsions stabilized by self-assembled lyotropic phases at the droplet interface. These emulsions, formed from phase separation in aqueous polymer solutions such as PEG and dextran, are attractive for encapsulation and controlled release of hydrophilic molecules without oil or organic solvent. The research sits within the ANR SHEILA project and focuses on making interfacial transport stimulus-respons...

About this position

Hokkaido University is recruiting one postdoctoral researcher for the Soft Matter Structural Properties Laboratory in the Graduate School of Advanced Life Sciences. The position supports the JST Emergent Research Support Program project “Precise Analysis and Extreme Extent of Structural Uniformity of Polymer Networks” led by Project Associate Professor Shintaro Nakagawa.

The research focuses on polymer materials, soft matter, and the quantitative analysis of polymer network structure. The successful candidate will work on synthesis of model polymers and raw materials, structural evaluation using scattering methods, and evaluation of physical properties, especially mechanical properties. The lab also welcomes new research ideas through JST’s voluntary research activities system, as long as they do not interfere with the main project.

Eligibility highlights: applicants must hold a doctoral degree or expect to obtain one by the appointment date. Strong ability to communicate in Japanese and/or English is required, along with experience and independence in one or more of the following: polymer synthesis, structural evaluation, and mechanical property evaluation.

Funding and conditions: annual income is 4–5 million yen, with an approximate monthly base salary of 380,000 yen under Hokkaido University’s contract employee regulations. The appointment is fixed-term, starting as soon as possible after 2027-04-01 (negotiable) and running until 2028-03-31, with possible renewal up to 2029-03-31 depending on performance and funding.

Application window: documents must arrive between 2026-09-24 and 2026-11-16. Applicants should submit a single PDF by email containing a CV, publication/research achievements list, a one-page research summary, and one reference’s name, title, affiliation, and email address.

Location: Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan.
