CIC energiGUNE is seeking a postdoctoral researcher to work in the high throughput development of inorganic cathode materials for Li-ion and Na-ion batteries using automatized modules for their synthesis and characterization with the final goal to accelerate the discovery of materials for the energy transition.
DESCRIPTION OF THE INSTITUTION:
CIC energiGUNE is a research center specialized in energy, electrochemical storage (batteries and supercapacitors), thermal energy solutions and hydrogen. As a member of the Basque Research and Technology Alliance (BRTA), CIC energiGUNE was born in 2011 as a strategic initiative of the Basque Government to generate knowledge that will be useful for the Basque business network, which makes it a reference in knowledge transfer.
CIC energiGUNE has a dynamic research team of more than 130 researchers and is extremely well equipped with a wide range of up-to-date facilities that are fully available for all its researchers. Also, the European Commission has recently (2019) awarded CIC energiGUNE with the ´HR Excellence in Research´ which reflects its commitment to achieving fair and transparent recruitment and appraisal procedures and certifies the existence of a stimulating and favorable work environment for researchers in the institution.
