Description
To support our effort in understanding the impact of 2D materials on human health (EU H2020, FET Graphene Flagship project), we are looking for highly skilled and motivated Research Associates who are keen to apply for a MSC individual fellowship.
Manchester is a city of technology and resource, knowledge and creativity. It is a city where everyday ideas are brought to life and new discoveries made. At the heart of the city is The University of Manchester - home of graphene research and the centre of emerging graphene applications. http://www.graphene.manchester.ac.uk/explore/graphene-city/
There has been considerable investment in graphene in Manchester with the £61m National Graphene Institute (NGI) supplementing existing facilities to become the home of graphene research and the £60m Graphene Engineering and Innovation Centre (GEIC). Organisations such as; EPSRC, ERDF, UKRPIF, Innovate UK and Masdar, have all demonstrated the global importance of advancing this new material by investing in graphene at The University of Manchester.
Manchester is an ideal place to work on graphene and 2D materials with more than 200 graphene researchers. The University of Manchester is also hosting the Henry Royce Institute, the UK national institute for advanced materials, leading 2 core research areas relevant for this hosting offer: 2D materials and and biomedical systems and devices. http://www.royce.ac.uk/biomedical-systems/
