Dartmouth, Canada Graphite Innovation & Technologies Full time

Post-Doctoral Fellowship in Sustainable Anti-biofouling Technologies
- **Are you passionate about developing sustainable solutions to environmental challenges in trillion-dollar ocean industries?**
- **Are you interested in developing interdisciplinary skills in collaboration with experts from industry and academia?**

Memorial University of Newfoundland-Grenfell Campus and St. Francis Xavier University, through funding from the Ocean Frontier Institute (OFI), Mitacs and industrial collaborator Graphite Innovation and Technologies (GIT), are recruiting a Post-Doctoral Fellow to develop cutting edge anti-biofouling technologies for ocean industries in Atlantic Canada.

Biofouling often leads to unwanted growth of organisms (biofilms, algae, barnacles, mussels, etc.) on marine infrastructure such as docks, ship hulls and submerged pipelines. It has tremendous environmental and economic impacts through increased fuel costs and greenhouse gas emissions, biocorrosion and increased maintenance, and inadvertent transport of invasive species, biocorrosion. Current solutions include biocidal or fouling release coatings, which although effective, have drawbacks. They either release biocides that have long-term toxicity impacts in the marine ecosystem or have reduced durability and are prone to mechanical damage. Our goal is to combine these two approaches into hybrid coatings with neither drawback.

Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Statement_**

General Qualifications

- Experience with chemical and physical characterization.
- Experience with measuring biofilms, biofouling and or toxicity.
