PhD Studentship: Bioelectrode Design
A 3.5 year PhD studentship is available from October 2025 to join Dr Jenny Zhang's team at the Department of Chemistry on a project aimed at accelerating 3-D bioelectrode design.
The student will employ a number of electrode fabrication approaches, including additive manufacturing and templated methods, to aid the developent of 3-D electrodes. This work will build on previous studies in the Zhang group (doi: 10.1038/s41563-022-01205-5). The student will also be expected to carry out in-depth electrode characterisation, using techniques including electrochemistry and electron microscopy. They will be expected to work in multi-disciplinary teams, in particular working closely with biologists to test the output of the electrodes.
Applicants must have (or expect to obtain) at least the equivalent of a UK upper second-class Master's degree in chemistry, materials, engineering or other relevant degree subject. Experience with 3-D computer-assisted drawing tools and good communication skills are desirable. The candidate will gain experience a wide range of materials fabrication and characterisation techniques, as well as personal development and leadership skills.
The University actively supports equality, diversity and inclusion and encourages applications from all sections of society.
