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.

Dear Sir/Madam
I hope this mail finds you in good health.
I am writing to you with the intention to become a part of your working environment based on your job listing in Psi-K network. At present, I am holding a postdoc position at Siberian Federal University, Russia from July 2021. I have more than 6 publications coming up under my present affiliation in 8 months and expect 3 more in the next two months in high impact Journals (Q1 ranking). Having 6+ years of experience in computational sciences, I developed strong expertise not only in ab initio methods but also in the molecular dynamics studies of biomolecules and experimental methods in synthesis of nanoparticles to support my research works. Thus, I can perform integrative methods to study the complex materials. As the next career step, I am highly motivated to explore the innovative opportunities in the research area where I can apply this knowledge to help solve, design and fabricate materials for day to day operations.
Heart fully, it would be an immense pleasure to have discussion with you regarding the prospective position that my work potential qualifies for.
Please find enclosed an entailment of my career and references in making your decision and for further information feel free to reach out to me.
Thank you
