We are hiring two PhDs on our EU SMOM project for a Sept 2026 start.
The two projects will involve being trained, and becoming expert in, air sensitive, platinum group metal organometallics, single-crystal SMOM synthesis, reactivity, and deployment in sustainable catalysis.

(2/2) ..I increasingly encounter faculty that will not support their own students/postdocs in fellowship applications due to perceived competition on science. Maybe I am just getting old but isn't the idea of our jobs to create great scientists that can go on and do even better science than we have?
