Postdoctoral Scholar – Chemistry Department The Pennsylvania State University in United States

The laboratory of Professor Katherine (Kallie) Willets in the Department of Chemistry at The Pennsylvania State University is recruiting multiple postdoctoral scholars for research in single-entity characterization using optical and electrochemical microscopy tools. The project investigates how structure at the level of individual nanoparticles influences function. Researchers will study how heterogeneity in nanoparticle morphology, interfaces, and local environments affects performance in elect...
