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.
Junior Group Leader - Theory and simulations of ... (No replies)
Back to Job listings...
The Otto Schott Institute of Materials Research at the Faculty of Physics and Astronomy of the Friedrich Schiller University Jena seeks to fill the position of a
Junior Group Leader "Theory and simulations of stimuli-responsive inorganic/hybrid materials" (m/f/d)
commencing on or before 01 April 2021.
Funded by the Carl Zeiss Foundation within its Breakthrough Program, the Friedrich Schiller University Jena has been establishing a coordinated research center on stimulus-responsive hybrid materials. Thereby, understanding the mechanism of stimulus response in inorganic and hybrid material systems (functional glasses, mesoporous materials, hybrid crystals) through theoretical methods and computer simulations is of key importance. The junior group leader is expected to establish a competitive research team with a focus on machine learning and ab initio approaches for predicting the mechanical, electrical and optical response of such materials under the influence of external stimuli (e.g., temperature, pressure, light). The successful candidate will occupy a central role in a vibrant environment of materials scientists, solid state physicists, chemists and experts in computational materials science.
