    Description

    The Department of Earth & Environmental Engineering has an opening for an Associate Research Scientist. This is a term appointment supported by a research grant, renewable annually for up to 3 years.

    As a Research Scientist in Prof. Park's group at Earth and Environmental Engineering, Columbia University, you will be responsible for conducting cutting-edge research focused on using Density Functional Theory (DFT) modeling and Molecular Dynamics (MD) modeling to investigate the chemistry of interfaces and the effect of water on chemical reactions in a different acidic environment. In addition, you will contribute to material synthesis, and experimental characterization. This position offers an exciting opportunity to contribute to groundbreaking research and make a significant impact in the fields of CO 2 capture and carbon mineralization for sustainable energy and environment.

    Responsibilities:

    1. Conduct DFT modeling and MD modeling to investigate the interface chemistry and understand the role of water molecules in chemical reactions at interfaces.

    2. Design and execute experiments to characterize the properties of materials used in CO 2 capture and carbon mineralization, including synthesizing and modifying materials.

    3. Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to develop and optimize CO 2 capture technology using porous materials, including the design and evaluation of novel materials.

    4. Analyze and interpret experimental and computational data to derive meaningful insights and contribute to scientific publications and presentations.

    5. Stay up-to-date with the latest advancements in CO 2 capture and carbon mineralization, and related fields by reviewing the scientific literature and attending conferences and seminars.

    6. Collaborate with research partners, both within the university and external organizations, to foster research collaborations and explore new avenues in the above-mentioned fields.

    7. Maintain and troubleshoot laboratory equipment and ensure adherence to safety protocols and guidelines.

    8. Mentor and guide graduate students and junior researchers, providing technical expertise and fostering their professional development.

    9. Assist in the preparation of research proposals, progress reports, and other documentation required for research grants and funding agencies.

    Qualifications:

    1. Ph.D. in Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, or a related field with a focus on computational chemistry in the field of CO 2 capture and carbon mineralization.

    2. Strong expertise in DFT modeling and MD modeling techniques, with a proven track record of applying these methods to study interface chemistry and related phenomena.

    3. Experience in experimental characterization techniques, such as spectroscopy, microscopy, and surface analysis, to investigate material properties and behavior at interfaces.

    4. Experiences with CO 2 capture materials, such as porous materials (e.g., metal-organic frameworks), adsorbents, or membranes, are highly desired.

    5. Proficiency in programming languages (e.g., Python, Fortran) and computational tools used in modeling and data analysis.

    6. Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to independently design experiments, analyze data, and draw meaningful conclusions.

    7. Excellent written and oral communication skills, with the ability to present research findings effectively to both technical and non-technical audiences.

    8. Ability to work collaboratively in a multidisciplinary research environment and contribute to team-based projects.

    9. A strong publication record in peer-reviewed journals and conference presentations demonstrating research contributions and scientific impact.

    To apply, please submit your cover letter, detailed resume, a statement of research interests, and contact information for references.
