USDA-ARS Postdoctoral Fellowship in Chemistry U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) in United States

This postdoctoral fellowship is hosted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Agricultural Research Service in Wyndmoor, Pennsylvania, within the Sustainable Biofuels and Co-Products Research Unit. The project focuses on turning herbaceous feedstocks into higher-value bio-based materials by extracting, characterizing, and using lignin from lignocellulosic biomass such as switchgrass and hemp. The fellow will help carry out lignin fractionation experiments, recover dissolved lignin after chemica...
