Ways to work with us
Use the route that best matches your career stage. These are enquiry routes, not advertised vacancies.
Speculative research enquiries
Postdoctoral and doctoral researchers with strong backgrounds in physics, chemistry, materials science or related fields may contact Simon with a CV and a brief outline of the research direction they would like to develop.
International and binational project ideas are welcome. A speculative enquiry does not imply that a funded position is available.
Strong candidates may wish to develop an individual scholarship or fellowship proposal with the group. Eligibility and deadlines change, so always check the funder’s current call before preparing an application.
Student projects and internships
Bachelor’s and Master’s students may enquire about research projects, theses or limited experimental placements. Send a CV and transcript and describe the area you want to explore.
Students in physics, chemistry and materials science are natural fits, while related disciplines are also welcome. AFM students should first undertake their research project with the group.
We regard equity and diversity as integral parts of academic excellence and particularly encourage enquiries from people from groups historically underrepresented in academia. The group works across traditional disciplines and within an international research community.
