- Being able to work independently, taking initiative and being able to plan ahead.
- Good oral and written English communication skills
- Experience with research supervision, i.e. of undergraduate students
- Awareness of diversity and equal opportunity issues.
Subject specific qualifications:
- Experience in working with mechanically interlocked molecules or materials
- Experience with multistep organic synthesis
- Experience with polymer development for regenerative medicine
