Candidates should have a Masters degree in Chemistry. His/Her academic background should include subjects/courses of relevance to the theme of this project.

Specific Entry Requirements: The candidate should have significant (documented) experience in operating medium field Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectrometers such as 400 MHz instruments. He/She should be trained in the use of such equipment having experience in running various types of experiments that would include basic one- (1H and 13C) and two-dimensional standard experiments (COSY, NOSEY, etc). He/She should have a good understanding of the general working features of the equipment, both software programs and hardware, and be able to trouble-shoot when problems arise. He/She should be proficient in spectral analysis. Ideally the candidate should have experience in chemical analysis of food products using NMR techniques.
