Job Openings

Postdoctoral position in NMR spectroscopy

We are looking for highly motivated candidates to take up a Postdoctoral position developing new methods in NMR spectroscopy to address challenging problems in chemistry and materials science. In particular we will be working on dynamic nuclear polarization enhanced NMR methods for materials. Examples of our recent work and the application areas that we work on can be found here with our most up to date publications being found here.

We are looking for highly motivated candidates with strong scientific background, independence, and who enjoy teamwork. You should hold a relevant qualification in chemistry, physics or related disciplines. Skills in developing experimental multi-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance are a plus.

Our laboratory at EPFL is part of one the world’s leading chemistry departments, and is located Lausanne on the north shore of Lake Geneva. The laboratory is equipped with unique state of the art NMR spectrometers (including gyrotron DNP accessories at 400 and 900 MHz, a dissolution-DNP machine, and 100 kHz magic angle spinning probes).

Motivated candidates should contact Lyndon Emsley with a CV by email. Applications will be reviewed as they are received, until the position is filled.
