Dr. Sara Lance

The Lance lab currently has an open position to support experimental investigation of multi-phase chemical reactions relevant for the formation of secondary organic aerosol within cloud and fog droplets. The advertised position includes instrument development of a particle trap for highly controlled single-particle experiments using aqueous levitated micro-droplets. This work will take place within the laboratory at the ASRC. In conjunction with the laboratory work, summertime deployment of cloud and aerosol instruments will take place at the Whiteface Mountain summit research station in the Adirondacks of upstate NY, including measurements of the physical and chemical properties of aerosol, cloud condensation nuclei and cloud droplet residuals.
