Please send your email to Chunlong.Chen@pnnl.gov directly; candidates inside US will be preferred, expected starting date: Nov. 2021

https://pnnl.jobs/jobs/; Job ID: 312664

Minimum Qualifications

Candidates must have received a PhD within the past five years (60 months) or within the next 8 months from an accredited college or university.

Preferred Qualifications

The successful candidate will be a synthetic chemist or a materials scientist responsible for designing sequence-defined peptoids for controlled self-assembly of soft matters with hierarchical structures and/or directing the formation of inorganic (nano)crystals. He or she will frequently interact with prominent researchers from Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) and University of Washington. Techniques will be used for this project include: Solid-phase peptoid synthesizer, UPLC-MS, prep-HPLC, AFM and TEM. Candidates with in situ AFM and Cryo-EM experiences will be highly preferred.
