Postdoctoral Position inside the Bio4Energy Program: Bioconversion of forest polymer derivatives
Course(s) Offered: Chemistry (Biochemistry, etc)
Course Level: Graduate (postdoctoral)
Provider: Umeå University
Country to Study in: Sweden
Scholarship Description
Bio4Energy is a strategic query endeavour amongst focus on bioenergy too the biorefining of lignocellulose (see www.bio4energy.se).
The consortium behind Bio4Energy consists of Umeå University, Luleå University of Technology, the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, R&D companies, too other industrial partners. Activities inside Bio4Energy are connected to several airplane pilot plants, which are located inwards Örnsköldsvik, Umeå, too Piteå too which are devoted to query on sustainable biofuels from lignocellulose. Bio4Energy is organized into 7 query platforms.
Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 postdoctoral put is at in i trial opened upwardly inside the Biochemical platform, which has the aim to prepare novel biocatalysts too bioprocesses designed for efficient conversion of lignocellulose to commodities such every bit second-generation biofuels, greenish chemicals too biomaterials.
Eligibility
Applicants should accept a doctoral bird or equivalent inside chemistry, chemic engineering, biotechnology, or an equivalent field, too preferably the bird should non endure to a greater extent than than 3 years old.
Experience inwards polymer chemistry, query on films too coatings, too analytical methods for studies of polymers too textile properties is of merit.
Furthermore, applicants should endure strongly motivated for query on lignocellulose chemical scientific discipline too biotechnology for the production of materials, greenish chemicals, too biofuels from renewable resources.
Good social skills, might to operate independently also every bit inwards collaboration amongst others, too skillful skills inwards Swedish too English linguistic communication are valued.
Eligible groups
Citizens of ANY province may apply
Participating Institutions
The Department of Chemistry, Umeå University, Sweden
Fields of study
The postdoctoral projection volition endure aimed at the enzymatic conversion of derivatives of forest polymers, such every bit lignin, cellulose too hemicellulose.
Utilization of derivatives of forest polymers inwards films too coatings volition endure investigated. Advanced chemic analyses of polymeric, oligomeric too monomeric phenylpropanoids volition endure an of import business office of the research.
Number of awards
One put is open
Sponsorship duration
The put is for a duration of 2 years.
Scholarship benefits
Method of Application
The application should include: (i) a encompass missive of the alphabet summarizing your qualifications too motives for applying, (ii) a Curriculum Vitae, (iii) a publication list, (iv) transcript of records from higher education, too (v) the names too contact details of 1 to 3 references.
The application should non include dissever articles or theses.

The postdoctoral put is linked to prof. Leif J. Jönsson's grouping inwards Technical Chemistry at the Department of Chemistry of Umeå University.
The Department of Chemistry (see www.chemistry.umu.se) conducts query inwards the areas of biological chemistry, environmental biogeochemistry too technical chemistry. The subdivision has a potent focus on interdisciplinary operate too has skillful access to modern analytical instrumentation including facilities inside the Chemical Biological Centre (see www.kbc.umu.se).
Research inwards prof. Jönsson's grouping is carried out inwards laboratories inwards Umeå too inwards Örnsköldsvik, too involves collaborations inside several potent query environments such every bit Bio4Energy too BioImprove (see www.bioimprove.se), amongst biorefinery-oriented manufacture inwards the share (see www.processum.se too www.bioraffinaderi.se), too amongst academic partners such every bit the Umeå Plant Science Centre (see www.upsc.se).
