Due to the large number of posts recently, there is currently a delay of several weeks between posts being submitted and the corresponding emails being distributed to all users. Please bear with us while we try to improve this. In the meantime – and until this notice is removed – it would assist us considerably if you could submit only important and/or urgent posts and thus help to reduce the size of the mail queue. Under no circumstances should you resend posts multiple times when you find the emails are not distributed immediately.

In light of the Russian military offensive in Ukraine, we request that announcements relating to events, jobs and other activities associated with institutions supported by the Russian and Belarusian states are not posted to the Psi-k forum.

PhD Studentship: Predictive Molecular Modelling towards Preventing Catalyst Poisoning in Methane Valorisation Chemistries

The group of Dr Michail Stamatakis at UCL Chemical Engineering is seeking an enthusiastic and dedicated PhD student, who will use molecular simulation (ab initio calculations and kinetic Monte Carlo) to advance the understanding and prevention of catalyst deactivation via poisoning, and guide the development of superior catalytic materials and reactive processes. The project has significant industrial relevance, and is part of a long-standing collaboration between UCL and Johnson Matthey, a prominent British multinational speciality chemicals and sustainable technologies company.

The post is fully funded for 3.5 years (3 years fees, and 3.5 years stipend) starting in October 2022. Please note that due to funding restrictions the post is open to UK citizens; however if an overseas candidate is able to fund the difference between overseas and home fees themselves, they are welcome to apply.

Deadline for applications: 8-Jun-2022
