About the position

Postdoctoral Researcher for SLA/DLP 3D Printing

Job Summary

The Chen Wang Research Group is seeking a highly motivated,
creative, and ambitious Postdoctoral Research Fellow to lead a
project at the intersection of additive manufacturing, polymer
chemistry, and materials science. The successful candidate will
lead the optimization of this printing platform, characterize the
fundamental reaction kinetics, and validate its translation into
high-impact energy and medical applications. Candidates preferably
hold a Ph.D. in Materials Science, Polymer Chemistry, Chemical
Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, or a related field, backed by
a strong track record of first-author publications. This role
requires hands-on expertise in vat photopolymerization 3D printing
(SLA/DLP), custom resin formulation, and nanoscale characterization
techniques like SEM. A deep understanding of polymer
chemistry—specifically photopolymerization kinetics,
polymerization-induced phase separation (PIPS), or dynamic covalent
chemistry—is essential. Ideally, the preferred candidate will also
bring experience in 3D printer customization, software/hardware
integration, and CAD modeling skills.
