A 3-year postdoctoral research fellowship is available at the Department of Chemistry, University of Oslo, Norway (http://www.kjemi.uio.no/ ).

The position is part of the Oslo SISAK project, which investigates chemical and physical properties of super heavy elements, i.e. the transactinides. The research is part of a large international collaboration set out to investigate the physical and chemical properties of these elements at the extreme of the periodic table. Project leader in Oslo is Professor Jon Petter Omtvedt.

The candidate must have a PhD or other corresponding education equivalent to a Norwegian doctoral degree. The successful candidate must be a team-player and is expected to work closely with the rest of the research group. The selected candidate should be motivated, talented, and curiosity driven individual with a strong background in experimental science, preferentially nuclear science, and laboratory work. She or he must also fully master a Scandinavian language or English, and should have writing skills good enough to write journal papers in English. The candidate is expected to participate in supervision of PhD and Masters-degree students, thus previous teaching and/or supervision experience is an advantage.
