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.

We seek a doctoral researcher to work on the GreenCat project, which has its motivation and objectives related to the green transition in catalysis. The doctoral researcher will employ density-functional theory, density-functional tight-binding methods, and advanced molecular dynamics simulations to understand the stability of novel carbon-based catalysts in electrocatalytic applications.
The candidate will work together with the groups of Prof. Pekka Koskinen (Department of Physics) and Prof. Karoliina Honkala (Department of Chemistry) at the Nanoscience Center of the University of Jyväskylä, Finland.
The eligible candidate should be highly motivated, hold or is about to obtain an MSc degree in physics or chemistry, and have some experience in materials modeling. Know-how in programming, computational scripting, supercomputer infrastructures, and machine learning is an advantage. In addition to good academic success, the candidate should have good written and oral communication skills in English and the capacity to do research independently.
