Postdoctoral Fellows
The Harel group offers a unique opportunity in the Department of Chemistry at Northwestern for highly motivated students interested in the challenges of building a new lab and seeing ideas come full circle from conception to implementation. We are deeply involved in thinking about problems in quantum mechanics, non-equilibrium statistical mechanics, photochemistry, protein folding, relaxation theory, to name a few. You will be heavily involved in developing new techniques in spectroscopy and imaging and applying them to problems of biological and chemical importance.
