Dear Colleagues,
We have a three-year postdoctoral Research Associate position open in the Manchester NMR Methodology group. The aim of the project is to develop new and improved NMR methods that are tolerant of sample flow.
Flowing a sample through an NMR spectrometer allows real-time analysis with minimal perturbation. This is an area of steadily growing importance, and is becoming more widely available with the introduction of less expensive, and more portable, low-field NMR instruments. Sample motion, whether deliberate, as in measurements on flowing samples, or inadvertent, as in sample convection, can be very detrimental to the sensitivity and quality of NMR data, limiting the use of modern pulsed field gradient methods. New flow-tolerant NMR experiments will enable spectrometers to deliver maximum sensitivity, and the full range of modern NMR methods to be applied to techniques such as real-time reaction monitoring and HPLC-NMR.
The appointee will join a large and lively group (currently 18 members from 10 different countries) with excellent facilities (including 12 different spectrometers). A full description of the post is available at https://www.jobs.manchester.ac.uk/Job/JobDetail?JobId=30839; the closing date for applications is the 9th of December.
We would be very grateful if you could bring this opportunity to the attention of any qualified candidates.
All the best,
Mathias Nilsson
