Postdoctoral Research Assistant in Bottom-up experimental investigation of pathways to hydroxyapatite remineralisation
central Oxford
We are seeking a full-time Postdoctoral Research Assistant to join the Multifunctional Materials & Composites (MMC) Laboratory at the Department of Engineering Science. The post is funded by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) and is fixed term to 30 November 2027.
The research project will employ cutting-edge experimental methodologies to elucidate the pathways for human tooth enamel mineralization by 4D microscopy and microfluidics. We are looking for a motivated and imaginative materials chemist to drive the effort towards developing breakthrough remineralizing solutions. Further project details are found in the accompanying Job Description.
You should hold a doctorate (PhD/DPhil) or be near completion in a relevant materials chemistry/science/engineering discipline, together with some post-doctoral experience. You should possess a strong background in biomineralization and/or crystallization chemistry, microfluidics, solution synthesis, and spectroscopic techniques (e.g. Raman and infrared), and must be prepared to get involved in complex experimental campaigns (e.g. at synchrotron).
