Researcher

• Study the fundamental mechanisms governing steam condensation in low-pressure chambers used for sterilization of heat-sensitive medical instruments
• Study the impact of steam condensation on the materials constituting these instruments
• Work on a one-year project at the ITODYS laboratory, Université Paris Cité
• Collaborate at the interface between fundamental research and industrial innovation

• PhD in Physics, Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Physical Chemistry, or a related field
• Alternatively, an engineering degree or a five-year university degree in the same fields
• Experience in one or more of: experimental fluid mechanics; phase-change phenomena (condensation, evaporation); heat and mass transfer; interfacial phenomena and wetting; instrumentation and experimental design
• Experience with optical diagnostics, vacuum systems, or environmental chambers would be an advantage

• One-year fixed-term contract
• Opportunity to work at the interface between fundamental research and industrial innovation
• Collaboration funded by Advanced Sterilization Products, a global leader in sterilization technologies for medical instruments
