PhD Positions in Chemistry
January 25, 2010PhD positions in Chemistry
Job Description : Germany: Research group of Biofunctional and Stimuli-Responsive Materials.
Our research group is a part of the Biointerfaces Programme at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology and the University of Heidelberg in Germany.
We are looking for highly motivated students majored in chemistry or polymer chemistry. Please send your applications with your CV to levkin@kit.edu.
DESCRIPTION:
In our research group, there are several projects focused on the development of biologically active functional polymer surfaces and materials, “smart” switchable polymer surfaces, and gradient surfaces that we use for fundamental investigations of biological interfaces, for studying cell- and bacteria-surface interactions and for studying biofouling.
The motivation behind our research is: to learn how cells and bacteria interact with surfaces; to develop biocompatible, biomimetic and “smart” materials that can improve performance of existing biomedical or cell culture devices.
Our research is very interdisciplinary and we closely collaborate with biologists and physicists from the KIT and University of Heidelberg.

I have worked on bio-inorganic aspects of porphyrin chemistry under the supervision of Prof. D. Mohajer. Title of my doctorate thesis: Solvent Effects on Catalytic Epoxidation of Alkenes by Tetra-n-Butylammonium Periodate in the Presence of Manganese (III) tetra-aryl-porphyrins and Nitrogen Donors. Also, I received my M.Sc in Inorganic Chemistry from Shiraz University, Shiraz, Iran on September 2003 under the supervision of Dr. M. Asadi from Shiraz University in Inorganic Chemistry; Title of my M.Sc thesis: Synthesis, Characterization and Thermodynamic Study of Cobalt (III) Schiff Base Complexes with P(n-Bu)3
Based on my academic experiences, I have a very strong background in inorganic chemistry and also a wide range of practical and analytical skills ideally suitable for continuing my carrier as a researcher in research environments. I am looking for a position where my knowledge and experiences could be applied to provide innovative solutions.
At present, I work on a project, Dye-sensitized solar cell, in Department of material Science in Sharif University under the supervision of Dr. M.R. Mohammadi.
I am looking forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience, concerning my request. Please contact me should require further information.
Sincerely, Massoumeh Abbasi
