Designation/Position- BioLEC Postdoctoral Program

Princeton University, USA invites application for BioLEC Postdoctoral Program from eligible and interested candidates

About- The Bioinspired Light-Escalated Chemistry (BioLEC) Energy Frontier Research Center (EFRC) at Princeton University was established to unite basic energy science research in order to enable unprecedented opportunities for saving energy in production processes for new fuels and chemicals. BioLEC aims to address the basic scientific challenge of precisely breaking and selectively editing molecules using the power of light. BioLEC is empowered by a scientific approach that unites basic energy science research-solar photochemistry, photosynthetic systems, and catalysis. Twelve investigators with a wide range of expertise will shift the field from passive solution-phase catalysis to photon-aided catalysis where two-electron chemistry is controlled.

Research/Job Area-

*Ultrafast science
*Femtosecond & Single Molecule Biophysics
*Catalysis for Synthetic Chemistry
