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.
Ad Astra Fellowship in Computational Chemistry (1 reply)
Dear Prof.
With due respect, I am writing this application to express my interest to associate with you as a researcher. I am Mitesh B. Solanki currently working as a Research Scholar at the School of Technology, Pandit Deendayal Petroleum University, Gandhinagar, Gujarat, India. My topic of research is “Nonlinear Optical Crystal based on Experiments and Theoretical Study of Nonlinear Optical Crystals Material”. and recently submitted my doctoral thesis. Apart from this, I have gained impressive experience in computational DFT studies such as Gaussian, Quantum expresso Presently, I am looking for a good post-doctoral opportunity. I am following your research group for a long time and my work is closely aligning with your research interest. In this regard, I would like to put my candidature for a possible Post Ph.D. research opportunity at your lab.
Ph.D. work was focused on Nonlinear Optical Crystal based on Experiments and Theoretical Study of Nonlinear Optical Crystals Material. I had researched specifically on growth and characterization of modified KDP single crystals and extensively explored their theoretical aspects using Density functional theory by Quantum Espresso, VASP, Gaussian, Material Studio, and Wien2K DFT packages. Further, I have worked as JRF at Dairy Science College where I have been involved in the development of Nano-Tag and Thread-based Micro-Fluidic Biosensor for Detection Aflatoxin M1 in Milk.
I am currently working on the first principle calculation of novel YRuB2 family rare-earth ternary boride topological Superconductor for quantum computing and thermoelectric application and got impressive results. To validate obtained results and further study the findings, I am searching for a mentor working on theoretical aspects in this area. Since my research work and expertise fully align with your group's research interest, I am keenly interested to work under your guidance.
furthermore; I have already Theoretically (DFT) calculate more than 80 up material calculations like Nitrogenbase stable Sperovskite, some MnBi2Te4 family topological superconductor, iodine base stable semiconductor, and quasicrystals materials
I have enclosed my resume with this application for your perusal to know more about my education and experience. I request you to kindly consider my candidature for post-doctoral research work and I will be grateful for the opportunity. Thanking you,

UCD School of Chemistry Ad Astra Fellows
The UCD School of Chemistry has an open position for an Ad Astra Fellow.
We are particularly interested in receiving applications from candidates with a track-record of high-impact research in Computational Chemistry.
This could include electronic structure calculations, atomistic simulations, the use of empirical force fields and quantum mechanical modelling or the application of machine learning and artificial intelligence to address challenges from all areas of chemistry.
Details of the Application and Selection Criteria and the Appointment Terms and Research Supports are available on the UCD Website. Applications should be submitted through the School of Chemistry link at https://www.ucd.ie/adastrafellows/science/ or via https://www.ucd.ie/workatucd/jobs/ and search for Job Ref 013744.
UCD School of Chemistry has recently been successful in an application for an Athena SWAN Bronze Award, and in recognition of this we especially welcome applications from suitably qualified candidates that can redress our faculty gender balance.
