PhD Position in Analytical Chemistry

Přehled

Analytical chemistry integrates chemical disciplines, physics, biology, information theory, and technical fields. It provides information on the identity, structure, and quantity of components in natural and man-made objects and their distribution. It collaborates with other natural sciences to explore the relationships between chemical composition and properties of substances. This multidisciplinary field emphasizes teamwork. It requires knowledge of general and physical chemistry, physics, mathematics, inorganic and organic chemistry, biochemistry, and modern analytical methods.
