10.06.11 - Bruce Yoder, a former member of <strong>EPFL</strong>’s Molecular Physical<br />
Chemistry Laboratory (PhD advisor Prof Ra<strong>in</strong>er Beck), has won an award<br />
for his doctoral research.<br />
The <strong>EPFL</strong> <strong>Doctoral</strong> Award recognizes PhD work of exceptional quality<br />
and aims to encourage careers <strong>in</strong> research.<br />
Mission PhD accomplished with this chemist.
The <strong>Doctoral</strong> Program of Chemistry and Chemical Eng<strong>in</strong>eer<strong>in</strong>g<br />
provides its Ph.D. students with the highest standards of education to<br />
help them become leaders <strong>in</strong> the eng<strong>in</strong>eer<strong>in</strong>g and chemistry sectors,<br />
and <strong>in</strong> molecular sciences. The program offers a wide choice of<br />
postgraduate courses that can be followed either at the <strong>EPFL</strong> or offcampus.<br />
All modern aspects of this science can be studied.<br />
Our school enjoys <strong>in</strong>ternational renown for its research. Chemists<br />
and biochemists f<strong>in</strong>d <strong>in</strong> this doctoral program the up-to-date tools<br />
and methods to develop their expertise <strong>in</strong> the design and production<br />
of sophisticated substances and materials. Molecular science<br />
knowledge can also be ga<strong>in</strong>ed through theory and calculations. Our<br />
Ph.D. students generate new knowledge the world needs now — and<br />
will need tomorrow.<br />
Our doctoral program benefits from collaboration with the<br />
neighbour<strong>in</strong>g Universities of Geneva and Lausanne. It enjoys a<br />
special partnership with the Ecole Polytechnique of Palaiseau near<br />
Paris, with the Universities of Paris 6, Paris 11, Bordeaux <strong>in</strong> France,<br />
and Louva<strong>in</strong>-la-Neuve <strong>in</strong> Belgium.<br />

« Canada is good, It is a different experience from Europe.<br />
Here is my experience after graduation: ».<br />
April. 2010-February <strong>2011</strong>: Post-doctoral Fellow <strong>in</strong> DNA<br />
and Prote<strong>in</strong> Biosensors, The University of Western Ontario,<br />
Supervisor: Prof. He<strong>in</strong>z-Bernie Kraatz. February <strong>2011</strong>-<br />
Now: Post-doctoral Fellow <strong>in</strong> Corrosion Science and Eng<strong>in</strong>eer<strong>in</strong>g, The<br />
University of Western Ontario, Supervisor: Prof. David W.Shoesmith.<br />
Rahleh Partovi Nia, Postdoc, The University of Western Ontario<br />
The equipment and runn<strong>in</strong>g of the lab and build<strong>in</strong>g is not as good as <strong>in</strong><br />
Lausanne ...But: My supervisor is really nice and easy go<strong>in</strong>g as are most of<br />
the lecturers here. They also have a good connection to undergraduate<br />
students. Everybody <strong>in</strong> the labs and the build<strong>in</strong>g is very friendly. The environment<br />
is quite <strong>in</strong>ternational with people com<strong>in</strong>g from all over the world<br />
(Asia, Europe, America). Funnily, we are quite some "Lausannois" over<br />
here. About 5 former PhD students from<br />
<strong>EPFL</strong>. We are all enjoy<strong>in</strong>g the atmosphere<br />
over here <strong>in</strong> Australia. The science<br />
at the <strong>School</strong> of Chemistry at The University<br />
of Sydney is really diverse and<br />
spreads from organic chemistry via medic<strong>in</strong>al<br />
chemistry and polymer science to<br />
applied catalysis, spectroscopic methods<br />
to computational chemistry. Many of the<br />
academics have connections to the <strong>in</strong>dustry. I have a lot of freedom to<br />
work and still learn a lot. Also, Sydney is a very <strong>in</strong>terest<strong>in</strong>g city with loads<br />
of th<strong>in</strong>gs to do at the weekend: ocean beaches and national parks surround<strong>in</strong>g<br />
it where activities range from sun burn<strong>in</strong>g ;-), surf<strong>in</strong>g, snorkell<strong>in</strong>g,<br />
div<strong>in</strong>g, etc. to hik<strong>in</strong>g, climb<strong>in</strong>g, river raft<strong>in</strong>g, cav<strong>in</strong>g, etc. Overall, I am very<br />
happy to have come here.<br />
