As part of the European Research Council (ERC) Advanced Grant project DEEP-SEE, the Theoretical Chemistry and Molecular Thermodynamics axis of the “Laboratoire de Chimie” at the Ecole Normale Supérieure in Lyon (ENSL) seeks to appoint a full-time Postdoctoral Research Assistant (PDRA) to model the enrichment processes of rare earth elements (REE) in bioapatites from marine deposits.
The successful candidate should hold a PhD in Chemistry, Geosciences or closely related fields and should have knowledge of the fundamental processes that govern chemical reactions at the solid-water interface. Experience in combining process-based understanding with numerical/computational skills is essential. Experience with VASP, CP2K and/or Orca is a plus. Writing skills and proficiency in English are important.
The contract runs for 18 months, renewable for a further 6 or 18-months period, pending satisfactory progress. The salary depends on the experience of the PDRA, starting at a net salary of 2000 €/month for young graduates.
