Fully Funded PhD Position in flow crystallisation with in situ X-Ray diffraction
We are pleased to announce a PhD opportunity in flow crystallisation with in situ X-Ray diffraction. This multi-disciplinary PhD will combine reactor design, crystallisation, crystal engineering and data science. You’ll be joining a group of students developing a variety of flow apparatus for tailored needs. At Diamond Light Source, the UK’s national synchrotron, we have developed world leading in situ flow crystallisation apparatus which enables us to monitor what we are crystallising as it is crystallising. By coordinating the flow of crystals within the crystalliser tubing with the movement of the whole crystalliser as the crystals pass the X-Ray beam, we can maximise the data which can be obtained from this dynamic environment. However, there are still great challenges to be overcome.
