PhD Fellowship in Design and Advanced Characterization of Gel Materials for Micro-Supercapacitors
Deadline: Dec 12, 2025
A PhD Fellowship is available to support the research activities in the context of the European project “Cross-border micro-supercapacitors for embedded electronics (TRANS-CAP )”
The thesis project will be done in the group of Dr. Irune Villaluenga (POLYMAT-EHU, Spain) and with Dr. Valeria M. Blanco (ICMAB, Spain). and it will be focused on the development and characterization of gel polymer materials for micro-supercapacitors, and it will be developed as a collaboration between the two groups.
Applicants must have a BSc and MSc in Material Science, Polymer Chemistry or Electrochemistry. Those with experimental and communications skills, and enthusiasm for research and innovation to carry out a challenging 3-year research project are encouraged to apply. Successful candidate will be incorporated into a multidisciplinary and multicultural team.
Applications should be addressed to Dr. Irune Villaluenga (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) and Dr. Valeria M. Blanco (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) before the 12/12/2025. Applications will be considered upon arrival including:
(i) a cover letter highlighting their interest in the position.
(ii) curriculum vitae.
(iii) a short description of previous research (1-2 Pages).
(iv) the names and contact addresses (e-mail) of two academic referees.
Please note that, because of the large number of applications expected, we will not be able to give individual feedback to unsuccessful applications.
