We are #hiring! We are looking for motivated Ph.D. candidates with a background in #MaterialsScience, #Physics, or #Chemistryto work on the #ERCStartingGrant project SOLIDCON and establish the fundamentals of #sustainablemetal-sulfur #batteries. (1/4)

[Christian Prehal @ChrisPrehal]

2. You are working on an exciting research project: The #ERCStGproject SOLIDCON will use real-time SAXS/SANS, cryo-TEM, machine learning, and electrochemical methods to establish the basis of future high-energy #batteries. (3/4)

[Christian Prehal @ChrisPrehal]

Key facts:
1. You are joining an interdisciplinary research group (https://t.co/gXkZ3dqun0) in its start-up phase with significant funding from the European Research Council (ERC) (2/4)

[Christian Prehal @ChrisPrehal]

@SlugovcLab Thank you 😊

[Christian Prehal @ChrisPrehal]

I am excited to announce that I have received an ERC Starting Grant and 2.3 M Euro funding (1.5 M base + 0.8 M infrastructure) to work on next-generation lithium-sulfur batteries. The SOLIDCON project will focus on developing new metrologies, advanced data analysis methods, (1/3)

Properties and function of next-gen energy storage are not only rooted in the chemistry but at least as much in the nanoscale structure and transport. Check out our latest results on Li-air batteries @PNASNews: https://t.co/Giu0ZxNaJ3
