Field-controlled manipulation of minute amount of liquids in fiber-based nanofluidics

One research associate/post-doctoral position and multiple PhD student positions are available immediately to work on a 4-year program on field-controlled manipulation of microdroplets. The program is focused on development of fundamental principles of liquid/solid interactions at micro and nanoscales in the presence of electro-magnetic fields.

The candidates are expected to be familiar with flow imaging, optical diagnostics, and basic techniques of physico-chemical fluid mechanics. BS or MS students with background in physics, mechanics, chemical engineering, materials science & engineering, or applied mathematics are encouraged to apply for PhD student positions.

We are looking for dynamic and active researchers interested in working with a strong team of graduate students in the state-of-the-art Micro and Nanofluidics Lab. Currently, the group consists of 7 PhD students and two post doctoral fellows with background in physics, mechanical engineering, and materials science. The environment of the School of Materials Science & Engineering at Clemson University is friendly and welcoming for researchers looking for broadening their knowledge, expertise, and growth potential.
