Postdoctoral Fellow
Carbon Nanomaterials for Critical Mineral Recovery

Full-time, 2-year Appointment

POSITION SUMMARY

The Department of Chemistry at the King’s University is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral fellow to join
Dr. Cassidy VanderSchee’s interdisciplinary research program to develop advanced carbon nanomaterials for
critical mineral recovery and environmental remediation.

In partnership with BioGenius Agri-Tech Inc., our research designs and synthesizes functionalized carbon
nanoparticles that exploit coordination chemistry to selectively bind and recover vanadium and other critical
metals from oil sands process-affected water. This work integrates coordination chemistry, nanomaterials
synthesis, surface functionalization, and advanced materials characterization to engineer selective metal-
binding interfaces for critical metal recovery and environmental remediation.

The successful candidate will lead an independent research project within a collaborative academic–industry
partnership. The position offers opportunities to publish high-impact research, develop patents, mentor
students, and contribute to grant development. The successful candidate will apply principles of coordination
chemistry to design selective metalbinding nanomaterials and evaluate their performance using advanced
analytical and materials characterization techniques, including ICP-MS, FTIR, UV–Vis spectroscopy, DLS, zeta
potential analysis, TEM, and XPS. This is a unique position which combines fundamental materials discovery
with real-world industrial application. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to build an
independent research profile while working at the interface of chemistry, nanotechnology, and environmental
engineering within a growing research program.

This postdoctoral grant is offered under the Canada Impact+ Research Training Awards. The grant is for two
years, with a salary of $63,000 per year, plus benefits. Applicants must not currently be in Canada or affiliated
with a Canadian university and are required to commit for the full-term of the award. The King’s University in
Edmonton, AB offers a collaborative and supportive research environment with access to regional research
facilities and strong partnerships across academia, government, and industry.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Conduct high-quality independent research leading to journal publication and presentation at major

conferences

Design, synthesize and characterize functionalized carbon nanoparticles for the selective recovery of

vanadium from complex environmental matrices

Contribute to patent development and technology commercialization
Assist with grant applications
Co-supervision of undergraduate students, with opportunities to teach if desired
Collaborate with academic, industry, and government research partners.

QUALIFICATIONS

A PhD in Chemistry or closely related discipline. Research experience should include one or more of

the following: coordination chemistry, nanomaterials synthesis and characterization, surface
chemistry and functionalization, or carbon-based materials

Do not have a current affiliation with a Canadian institution and must be currently studying or

working abroad. Applicants can be of any citizenship.

A track record of peer-reviewed publications in international journals
Demonstrated ability to work collaboratively within a scientific team
Fluent in oral and written English

Applications should include a curriculum vitae, contact information for 2 references and a cover letter explaining
interest in the position, highlighting your publications and experience most relevant to the position.
Applications and inquiries for more information should be sent to [email protected]

The target start date is Winter 2026 (flexible). Applications will be accepted until the position is filled.
