1 PhD Fellowship in Marie Skłodowska-Curie Innovative Training Network on “3D Printing of biocompatible Thiol-ene Systems by Energy Efficient Photopolymerisation for tissue engineering applications”. The aim of this project is the synthesis of new monomers to open the door for novel eco-friendly biomaterials for 3D printing of porous scaffolds for tissue engineering applications. In the partner institute at the University of Maribor highly porous polymers with cellular interconnected macroporous structure are prepared from these materials by an emulsion templating method. The PhD project (3 years, 40 h/week) includes 26 months in the main host institution (TU Vienna), a 6-month secondment at the academic partner premises (UNI Maribor), and a 4-month secondment at an industrial partner (Glantreo, Ireland). The project offers exciting challenges to a PhD student interested to work at the interface between polymer synthesis and materials science. Profile: You will need to meet the requirements for an MSc-degree to ensure eligibility for an Austrian PhD examination. Your field of study is synthetic or polymer chemistry and you have experience with organic synthesis and in the field of radical or cationic polymerization.
