PHYMOL

Physics, Accuracy and Machine Learning: Towards the next generation of Molecular Potentials.

11 PhD positions are available in the Marie Sklodowska-Curie Doctoral Network 

PHYMOL brings together leading experts in the fields of molecular simulations, quantum chemistry, crystal structure prediction, intermolecular modelling, spectroscopy, machine-learning, and nano-clusters, from 12 academic institutes & laboratories, and 4 industrial entities, in an ambitious programme of research and training to develop a new generation of researchers in the field of molecular modelling. 

Available projects

1. DC1: Towards the accurate description of the induction energy in SAPT
2. DC2: Intermolecular interactions in excited states: the CO–CO* and other excimers
3. DC3: Collision-induced absorption and high-resolution spectra calculated from ab initio potentials
4. DC4: Reparametrisation of semiempirical models
5. DC5: Development of intermolecular force-fields with many-body dispersion interactions
6. DC6: Consistent treatment of polarization and charge-delocalization in many-body systems
7. DC7: How intermolecular interactions shape polymorphic energy landscapes
8. DC8: State-of-the art modelling of new quantum materials: surface-supported metal atomic
9. DC9: Implicit machine-learning solvent models for confined spaces.
10. DC10: Adapting state-of-the-art modelling of new quantum materials to industry-standard open-source big data analysis tools.
11. DC11: Density-mapped FFs: Rapid prototyping of force-fields based on physical and ML mappings onto the electronic density
