22 PhD Positions, "Interdisciplinary NAnoscience School: from phenoMEnology to applicationS" (NaMeS), Europe, U.S.A. & Canada (2017)

The Institute of Physical Chemistry of the Polish Academy of Sciences (IPC), the leading research entity among large chemical research organizations in Poland, invites applications for a position of PhD Student (22 positions) to join: "Interdisciplinary NAnoscience School: from phenoMEnology to applicationS" (NaMeS).

The NaMeS is a research training programme of IPC intended for PhD fellows. The programme, benefiting from former IPC achievements in nanoscience, is designed to employ the phenomenological knowledge concerning nanoscale processes to the creation of new materials applicable in industrial technology, medical diagnostics, and environmental protection. NaMeS links chemistry, physics, mathematics, biology and materials science with business. The programme is aimed at creating a new generation of scientists, capable of working in both scientific and business sectors, and becoming stimulants and intermediaries of knowledge & technology transfer on an international level.

IPC will select 22 PhD students to carry out PhD projects under supervision of at least one supervisor from IPC and one from an excellent partner institution (incl. Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research, Radboud University, University Pierre and Marie Curie, CRNS and others). PhD research will be accomplished both in Poland and abroad (during secondments to partner institutions).
