Postdoctoral researcher in experimental ultrafast science and quantum dynamics (D-24-CHM-00006)
The Princeton University Department of Chemistry seeks to hire Postdoctoral or more senior researchers for an appointment in Prof.

Herschel Rabitz's laboratory, working on a project titled "Nanoscale Imaging and Single-Molecule Metabolite Detection within a Biological Cell by exploiting Laser-driven Quantum Coherences".

This project aims to develop an instrument of unprecedented capability that will allow for the identification and mapping of any small molecule within its native single cell environment at nanometer resolution.

Determining the spatial distribution of small molecules within cells is crucial for understanding fundamental biological mechanisms.

The successful development of this instrument will permit addressing a host of unsolved problems in biology and has the potential to revolutionize our understanding of metabolism in healthy and diseased cells.

Applicants should have experience with one or more of the following: ultrafast lasers and optics, nonlinear spectroscopy and experimental quantum control.

Princeton University is an Equal Opportunity Employer, and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to age, race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, national origin, disability status, protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
