Due to the large number of posts recently, there is currently a 3-4 week delay between posts being submitted and emails being sent to the mailing list. Please bear with us while we try to improve this.

In light of the Russian military offensive in Ukraine, we request that announcements relating to events, jobs and other activities associated with institutions supported by the Russian and Belarusian states are not posted to the Psi-k forum.

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
