6. Postdoctoral Research Associate

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

Mimicking the chemical production of nature is a well pursued dream in the scientific community. Scientific progress is limited by the lack of efficient synergies among complex functions and by a much smaller research library than nature. CATART will explore new synergies in reaction robots that mimic nature in a much faster way. This will be achieved using H2O and CO2 as model substrates. We propose systems containing 3-D quantum dot networks with the ability to simultaneously harvest sun-light by luminescence, photocatalyze substrates and separate products. These phenomena will be managed by artificial intelligence, leading to reaction robots that autonomously learn and instantly maximize productivity. The envisioned system will revolutionize the way chemicals are produced.

10. Postdoctoral Research Fellow Positions in Biogeochemical Integration

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

Droughts, forest fires and other massive forest disturbances that have occurred in the last decade may be an early warning signal of coming threats to forests from climate change. However, available data and process understanding of the interactions between climate, major disturbance types and the carbon cycle are limited. This also applies to our ability to simulate the effects of compound extremes and disturbances on the CO2 sequestration potential of forests in future climate projections of Earth system models.
