Open Positions
We welcome applications for both doctoral and postdoctoral coworkers to join our efforts to develop and employ state-of-the-art IR spectroscopy in the gas phase.
Potential topics may include but are not limited to:
- Development of messenger-tagging IR spectroscopy approaches for the characterisation of mass and mobility selected ions
- Two-colour experiments with the in-house FHI FEL in helium nanodroplets
- Application to exciting projects in amyloid research, fundamental physical chemistry (e.g. hydrogen bonding), and carbocations
Requirements:
- A MSc degree or Ph.D. in Chemistry, Physics or Physical Chemistry with excellent grades in relevant courses.
- Affinity for performing complex experiments with a high drive to solve scientific and practical/instrumental challenges.
- Experience with molecular simulations (e.g. ab-initio, DFT) and programming languages (e.g. Matlab or Python) is preferred.
- Collaborative spirit and ability to work in an international research environment.
We offer:
- a nice, open, and fun team in a vibrant place
- excellent scientific and technical
