Job announcements relevant to people interested in electronic structure calculations…

Due to the large number of posts recently, there is currently a delay of several weeks between posts being submitted and the corresponding emails being distributed to all users. Please bear with us while we try to improve this. In the meantime – and until this notice is removed – it would assist us considerably if you could submit only important and/or urgent posts and thus help to reduce the size of the mail queue. Under no circumstances should you resend posts multiple times when you find the emails are not distributed immediately.

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.

Applications are invited for 4 PhD studentships within the Biological Physics Across Scales Centre for Doctoral Training (BiPAS CDT), a multi-disciplinary doctoral training programme in biological physics based at King's College London (UK) and funded by the King’s Centre for Doctoral Studies.

The BiPAS CDT’s focus is to understand how complex macroscopic phenomena—observed at scales appropriate to tissue, organism, or even population—arise from mechanisms at the cellular, molecular, and atomic level. This programme will give students the tools and skills they need to integrate knowledge across different length and time scales to bring new understanding to the mechanisms underlying the physics of life.

The BiPAS CDT is for physical scientists—physicists, chemists, mathematicians, and related disciplines—who are fascinated by the complexity of biological systems. All students will be co-supervised by a physical scientist and a life scientist for truly interdisciplinary training at the physics-biology interface.

BiPAS PhD students will use physical sciences experimental and theoretical/computational methodologies to answer fundamental questions in the life sciences, in fields ranging from immunology to stem cell biology to neuroscience. All projects concentrate on addressing challenging biological problems with a multi-scale character. Through a co-supervision model that will immerse students in both the physical and life sciences, students will become highly skilled researchers, equipped with multidisciplinary and transferrable skills and positioned to produce ground-breaking original research that will push the frontiers of biological physics. Ultimately, BiPAS PhD students will be trained to work successfully across the boundaries of traditional disciplines, scales, and methodologies and bring your expertise and innovation skills into the thriving and expanding life sciences realm, both in academia and industry.

Details of the application procedure and on projects are available at the BiPAS website. Further information can be obtained from [email protected]

The deadline for application for the first round of recruitment is 27 March 2020.

Best wishes,
The BiPAS Management Team
Sergi Garcia Manyes, Carla Molteni, Ismael Diez Perez and Katelyn Spillane
