Research Scientist Position France
Research Scientist (reflectivity) (m/f)
Duties:
Working within the Large Scale Structures (LSS) Group in the field of Neutron Reflectometry you will be involved in the commissioning followed by the day-to-day running, as well as the longer term development, of the new reflectometer FIGARO. The instrument is a vertical scattering reflectometer dedicated to the study of soft matter and biology. It will be installed in its position in January 2008 and be ready for commissioning by the end of March 2008. You will be expected to help with the installation and the commissioning phase, carry out your own research programme, as well as assisting ILL users in conducting their experiments once the instrument is commissioned.
The LSS group comprises a range of instruments designed to carry out studies on the structure of matter on a scale of one to hundreds of nanometers. These include instruments for small-angle scattering, reflectometry, diffraction from single crystals or one or two-dimensionally ordered materials. The range of science covered is very broad, from polymer and colloid science through structural molecular biology to materials science and magnetic phenomena.
Qualifications and exp?rience:
Ph.D. in physics, biophysics or physical chemistry.
We are particularly interested in highly motivated candidates with experience in reflectometry and an interest in soft matter or structural biology. Computing skills will represent an advantage.
The post represents an excellent opportunity for a young postdoctoral scientist to develop expertise, broaden their experience and interact with leading scientists from around the world. Applications from more experienced scientists who are able to obtain a secondment period from their home institute will also be considered.
NB: Alist of publications should be enclosed with the applications.
Language skills:
As an international research centre, we are particularly keen to ensure that we also attract applicants from outside France. You must have a sound knowledge of English and be willing to learn French (a language course will be paid for by the ILL). Knowledge of German would be an advantage.
Special requirements:
Further information can be obtained by contacting the head of the Large Scale Structures Group:
