PhD Studentship:
X-ray and Neutron Scattering from Soft Materials under Flow 

To start:
January 2007

Deadline for applications:
November 15 2006

Department of Chemistry, University of Reading; ISIS and Diamond Light 
Source, Rutherford Appleton Lab 

The influence of flow on a wide range of soft materials will be probed by 
in-situ small-angle
scattering coupled with simultaneous rheological measurements. The 
flow-induced alignment of peptide
fibrils, wormlike micelles and thermotropic liquid crystals are among the 
systems to be investigated.
The diversity of self-assembled and nanostructured materials and the unique 
combination of apparatus and
facilities available within the three institutions make this a very exciting 
studentship. The student
will be under the supervision of Prof Ian Hamley at the University of Reading 
but will be expected to
spend half their time at ISIS and Diamond (both at the Rutherford Appleton 
Lab close to Reading) working
with Dr Stephen King and Dr Nick Terrill. The project is supported by the 
CCLRC Centre for Molecular
Structure and Dynamics.

The studentship is available to UK/EU applicants with a UK upper second class 
honours degree in
Chemistry or a related subject, or a Masters degree or equivalent and will 
cover payment of fees and a
full maintenance allowance (L12,300 for 2006/7). Application forms are 
available by post or email from:
