Postdoctorant (H/F) in Active Nematic Self-Regulation Ecole supérieure de physique et de chimie industrielles de la Ville de Paris in France

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...

The European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) in Grenoble, France, offers a unique PhD opportunity focused on the structural study of the stratum corneum lipid interfaces. This project aims to advance our understanding of the human skin’s primary barrier, the stratum corneum, by investigating the interface between corneocytes and intercellular lipids using state-of-the-art neutron diffraction, neutron reflectometry, and advanced optical microscopy techniques. The research is fundamentally o...

This postdoctoral project is part of CoLiFlow , an ANR-funded research effort on the physics of foam formation in mixtures of organic liquids. The work sits at the interface of soft matter physics , interfacial physico-chemistry , and fluid mechanics , with the aim of understanding how liquid properties and flow conditions control the emergence, stability, drainage, and breakdown of foams in complex hydrocarbon systems. The researcher will develop a fundamental, mechanism-based understanding of ...

Postdoctoral position in Cold Atmospheric Pressure Plasma Jets and Natural Extracts for Antimicrobial Applications at the GREMI Laboratory, Université d'Orléans/CNRS, France. The project, PLASNANOBIAL – Plasma and Nanomaterials for Antimicrobial Properties , is funded by the ANR (French National Research Agency) and runs for 18 months (renewable), with a flexible start date ideally in Q1 2027. The work is based in Orléans and focuses on developing innovative plasma-based antimicrobial solutions ...

The European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) in Grenoble, France, offers a PhD position focused on in situ neutron diffraction for green steel and functional metal oxides. The successful candidate will join the diffraction group at the Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL), working with powder diffractometers D1B and D20, which are specialized for time-resolved in situ investigations of solids, phase transitions, and chemical reactions. The project centers on elucidating reaction pathways for hydro...
