Postdoc and Graduate Student Positions
 


There are positions available for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows immediately in Xu's group at UC, Berkeley. Candidates are expected to work on one of three research areas listed below:
 
1. Synthesis and self-assembly of peptide-polymer conjugates.
  For graduate students, candidates with interests in peptide chemistry, polymer science and/or biomaterials will be considered.
For postdoc, experiences in peptide chemistry, biophysics and/or living free radical polymerization will help. Experiences with either scattering or TEM will also help.
 
2. Hierarchical assembly of block copolymer-based supramolecules in thin films.
  For graduate students, candidates with interests in polymer science are welcome.
For postdoctoral position, candidates need to have thorough background in polymer science. Experiences with conjugated molecule/oligomer/polymer will help.
 
3. Nanocomposites based on copolymer and nanoparticles.
  For graduate student, candidates with interests in organic/inorganic hybrid solar cells are welcome.
For postdoctoral position, candidates with backgrounds either on nanoparticle or polymer science will be considered. Experiences in scattering, electron microscopy and AFM will be a plus.
 

Those who are interested in the graduate assistant positions need to be accepted into Berkeley's graduate program. Please contact Prof. Xu directly.
Those who are interested in the postdoctoral fellow position, please send the latest CV and pdf files of two representative publications to txuucb@gmail.com
