Postdoctoral Research Scientist

The Boyce Group of the Chemical Engineering Department at Columbia University is seeking to fill a postdoc opening as a part of a project that aims to develop and utilize magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques to characterize multiphase and granular flows within geophysical systems and chemical reactors. Insights from this experimental project will be utilized to improve and validate computational models of multiphase flows as well as develop environmentally friendly mining and energy technologies. This open position will be advised by Prof. Chris Boyce.

To be considered for this position, candidates should have received a PhD in Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, Physics, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field by December 2024. Technical skillsets in the areas of MRI, NMR, and experimental fluid dynamics are of value for this project. Additionally, candidates should enjoy working in a team environment, possess excellent written and oral communication skills, and be prepared to hone leadership skills through mentoring younger students, assisting with reports, and helping to coordinate project activities.
