Postdoc Position Available in the area of Carbon Nanotube Composites in the School of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering

At Nanyang Technological University (Singapore)

Research Topic:

Carbon nanotubes are thought to be high strength high stiffness materials that can significantly improve the mechanical properties of composites. We are working on functionalization of carbon nanotubes to improve the mechanical properties of the resulting composites.

Job description: Functionalization of carbon nanotubes to improve mechanical properties of composites

Requirements: PhD in Polymers or Materials Science; publication track records

Professor Mary Chan-Park

Dr Chan-Park did her PhD in polymers in MIT in 1993. She then did her postdoctoral fellow under the sponsorship of Dow Corning (USA). She worked for 10 years in industries in various technical management positions in USA and Singapore. She was a senior technical manager in Sipix Imaging (CA, USA) from 1999-2001. She then joined the Nanyang Technological University (NTU) as Associate Professor in 2001. She is currently also Associate Chair of the School of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering in NTU.

Dr Chan-Park has a vibrant research group with 7 postdoctoral fellows and 9 PhD/Masters. Her current interests are in Printed Carbon Nanotubes Electronics. She has published more than 95 peered review papers (in Advanced Functional Materials, Small, Chem Mat, Langmuir, Macromolecules, Applied Physics Letters, Nanotechnology, etc). She has also got 15 patents and several patent applications.
