Postdoctoral Research Associate position(s) available.
Experience in moderate-high pressure reactions and/or nanoparticle or catalyst synthesis strongly desired. Long term interest in PUI career advantageous.
Please email a CV to Dr. Chandler to request additional information.

Welcome to the Trinity University Catalysis Lab, home of the Chandler research group. Our primary interests are studying heterogeneous catalysts and providing outstanding research experiences where undergraduates and postdocs can develop as scientists. Our interests span a number of areas, including nanoparticle synthesis, reaction kinetics and mechanisms, oxidation and hydrogenation catalysis, physical organic and inorganic chemistry, infrared spectroscopy, and materials synthesis. We use a wide variety of characterization tools, but reaction kinetics and adsorption phenomena are near and dear to us. Come on in, see what we are doing, and drop us a note if we can provide you with more information.
