What if all you had to research was on the melting ability of chocolates? Suppose there is a Nobel in store for coming up with the most ingenious way to keep chocolate from melting? Cambridge University is in fact looking for a Charlie for its chocolate factory!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Cambridge University has advertised for a PhD studentship of a fully funded three and a half year research project to find ways to keep chocolate from melting in warm temperatures. \u201c<span style=\"color: #444444;\">The project will investigate the factors which allow chocolate, which has a melting point close to that of the human body, to remain solid and retain qualities sought by consumers when it is stored and sold in warm climates\u201d; rightly so as chocolate has a melting point close to the human body temperature. The research which would be supervised under the Department of Chemical Engineering &amp; Biotechnology<\/span> under supervisors who have experience in studying soft solids, including food.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #444444;\">It will not be such a sweet deal after all. <\/span>The university describes the program as being majorly \u201cexperimental\u201d but there is a huge deal of scientific and engineering skills involved.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The candidate will also need to have good mathematical skills, <span style=\"color: #444444;\">at least 4 years of study at University level and a high 2:1 or equivalent degree in a relevant discipline such as physics, chemistry, materials science or engineering<\/span>. A track record in scientific experimentation and extensive experience of studying soft solids could come in handy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The job is only open to EU candidates because of the funding regulations with a supposed sponsor having &#8220;existing technology in this field&#8221;. The last date to apply for a job as a chocolate doctor is August 29, 2014. There isn\u2019t much time left on that. Also the job is likely to start on January 2015.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ever thought of doing a PhD in Chocolate?
