Job summary

The Institute of Earth Sciences (Grenoble) at CNRS is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to study the composition of natural layered double hydroxides within the ANR NaturaLDH project. The role involves developing anion-exchange and ion chromatography protocols and applying them to natural samples to understand formation conditions.

You will join the Mineralogy team at Grenoble, collaborating with experts in geology, mineralogy, and analytical chemistry.

Qualifications

Expertise in developing analytical chemistry protocols.
Mastery of laboratory work rules in chemistry.
Experience in ion chromatography will be considered an asset.
Experience in anion exchange mechanisms will be considered an asset.
Knowledge of geology and mineralogy, particularly the mineralogy of ultramafic rocks, will be considered an asset.

Responsibilities

Develop a protocol for analysing layered double hydroxides by anion exchange and ion chromatography.
Characterise natural samples containing layered double hydroxides using electron microprobe and spectroscopic methods.
Collect samples containing layered double hydroxides in the field.
Disseminate results through publications and participation in scientific conferences.
