Applications are sought for a 3-year Postdoc position working on the discovery of new materials for key catalytic reactions addressing greenhouse gas emissions and food security issues. The role will focus on the computational aspects of the Australian Research Council (ARC) Discovery Project ‘Liquid Metal Interfaces – A Novel Platform for Catalysis’, working in the group of Professor Michelle Spencer and closely with the experimental CIs (Professors Torben Daeneke, Rosalie Hocking & Ken Chiang) on the grant.

The suitable candidate with be highly motivated with experience in performing DFT calculations and AIMD simulations using VASP (or related codes). Evidence of high impact publications in materials modelling of surface reactions, and experience using supercomputing facilities, is required.

For enquiries, please contact Professor Michelle Spencer ([email protected]) leader of the Computational Materials Chemistry/Physics group at RMIT University, Australia.
