Dear subscribers,

Please pass along this information to anyone who may be interested in this opportunities.

Physics Department of Yeshiva University in New York City has two openings for postdoctoral research associate positions, beginning in September 2015. The first position is for the project: "Collaborative research: Toolkit to characterize and design bi-functional nanoparticle catalysts." The postdoc will be stationed at Brookhaven National Laboratory and use advanced facilities of NSLS-II and other synchrotrons for X-ray absorption spectroscopy measurements. Required qualifications: Ph.D. in physics, chemistry or materials science, expert knowledge of XAS methods, including analysis and modeling of nanoparticles, and experience with in situ characterization methods by XAS and other techniques.

The second position is for the project "Multidisciplinary research for the advancement of filtration materials: Uptake, decomposition, and catalysis for Agent-POM/MOF Chemistry". The postdoc will be stationed at Brookhaven National Laboratory and use advanced facilities of NSLS-II and other synchrotrons for high energy XRD-PDF characterization of novel POM/MOF materials in reaction conditions. Required qualifications: Ph.D. in chemistry, chemical engineering or materials science, expert knowledge of XRD-PDF technique and data analysis, experience with analysis of MOFs, experience with in situ and/or operando methods of synchrotron characterization.

The research will be performed under the direction of Prof. Anatoly Frenkel. Applicants should forward cover letter with contact information of three references and CV to anatoly.frenkel at yu.edu. Yeshiva University is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
