Ambitious Project searching for ambitious Researchers (# of pos: 5)

NANOCORE-IMDEA Nanociencia is a 15+ scientists, 3+M€, 3+ year collaboration between the group of Prof. Emilio M. Pérez at Madrid-based, Severo Ochoa Center of Excellence, IMDEA Nanociencia , and the Danish nanotech company NANOCORE . We are using a novel and proprietary technology, developed during the course of ERC StG and PoC grants, to finally unleash the enormous potential of carbon nanotubes as fillers in polymer composites.

The aspiration of the Tsunami Project is to make the strongest industrially applicable material on Earth. Nothing less. So, if you have the ambition and the necessary skills, join us. This is your chance to make an impact.

We are seeking smart and engaged scientists at the Specialist, PostDoctoral, and Technician levels (several positions available), preferably with knowledge and experience in one or several of the following areas:

• Polymer/composites chemistry and analysis
• Materials science and engineering
• Structure-property relationships in materials
• Carbon nanotubes and graphene

Whether you are pursuing a career in industry or academia, this is the place to be. We have an offensive publication and patenting strategy (three PCT applications in the first year of the collaboration!), and the high strength/low weight materials being pursued have the chance to become tomorrow’s materials in virtually any industry you can think of: automobile, aviation, wind energy, off-shore, sporting goods, etc.

Email Emilio Pérez ([email protected] ) directly with your CV, a letter of motivation and names and contact details of at least two Referees. Positions currently offered are based in Madrid and will be starting as soon as possible.
