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.
Candidate for CNRS permanent position (No replies)
Back to Job listings...
The ADynMat consortium in computational materials science is looking for potential candidates to apply for a researcher permanent position in the framework of the 2024 annual selection of CNRS (France). Candidates are expected to be currently active in the area of computational materials science, particularly via atomic-scale modelling. Hiring will take place through a two-step procedure featuring a screening pre-selection (winter 2024) leading to in-person oral exam before a committee (spring 2024). The final goal is to join the ADynMat consortium located in Strasbourg and formed by senior researchers working in two neighboring institutes (ICube and IPCMS), ICube intended to be the every-day working place of the successful candidate. We are looking for candidates holding a PhD in the areas of atomic scale modelling of materials (classical and first-principles molecular dynamics combined, whenever feasible with machine-learning potentials) and/or related areas (theoretical chemistry, condensed matter theory) followed by a postdoctoral period (one or several years), with a sizeable number of publications issued from both PhD and postdoctoral years.
The project to be proposed by the candidate to CNRS will be prepared in close connection with the members of ADynMat and will involve the study of structural and thermal properties in the field of materials for energy storage and sustainable development. We stress the strong involvement with applied and technological issue of the expected project, that will be based on quantitative model of high predictive power. In this context, while encouraging any expression of interest falling within the above description, we shall decline any profile not oriented toward a quantitative description of materials properties.
We encourage all applicants to direct any queries or submit their applications, including CVs and publications, to Evelyne MARTIN ([email protected])
