RESOLV (Ruhr Explores Solvation) is a world-leading interdisciplinary research institution in Solvation Science awarded as a Cluster of Excellence by the German Excellence Strategy and funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft. Within RESOLV, more than 200 scientists at six institutions in the Ruhr Area, covering experimental chemistry, theory, chemical physics, and chemical engineering, investigate how solvents are involved in the control, mediation and regulation of chemical reactions and processes. RESOLV’s mission stretches from fundamental research to the translation into applications and products. For more information on RESOLV, please refer to www.solvation.de.

To complement the existing expertise in the Cluster of Excellence RESOLV (EXC 2033), we announce a position for an Early Career Research (ECR) Group Leader (m/f/d; according to TV-L 14 salary; with start-up package; funding from 01.01.2026 until 31.12.2032) to build up an independent ECR group with the thematic focus on “Catalysis”. This group will be initiated as a link between the Ruhr-Universität Bochum (RUB) and the Max-Planck-Institut für Kohlenforschung (MPI KoFo) in Mülheim in the framework of the Cluster of Excellence RESOLV, and will be hosted by RUB.
