  • molecule imaging
  • extreme timescale spectroscopy
  • ultrafast optics and x-ray science
  • relevance and applications in chemistry, biology and medicine

Duration: 3-year

Starting date: Summer/autumn 2018

Requirements:

  • Applicant must be highly motivated with an excellent academic background.
  • Applicants must hold or expected to complete Master’s degree or an equivalent degree in Physics, Chemistry or related areas.

How to apply:

  • Applications must be submitted online.
