This is a joint spectroscopy / theory project between: @MLBakerLab (mlbakerlab.co.uk); @GoodwinRadChem (capgoodwin.com); Prof. Han-Shi Hu (x-mol.com/groups/HanshiHU); Prof. Jun Li (junlilab.org/index.html) (Note, Manchester is rarely as sunny as shown above).

Ever considered doing a #PhDposition in another country? What about two countries? See se.manchester.ac.uk/phds-sci… For a joint @Tsinghua_Uni + @OfficialUoM PhD studentship on advanced X-ray spectroscopy to unravel the properties of rare-earth complexes in unusual oxidation states.
