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.

Fully funded MSCA PhD position available in the groups of Jean-Philip Piquemal, Louis Lagardère and Alexandre Tkatchenko.
State-of-the-art: Although it has been shown to be important in many contexts, many-body dispersion effects are not taken into account within standard molecular mechanics force-fields, even most advanced ones, due to the associated large computational cost. Recently, algorithmic advances drastically reduced this complexity, allowing to develop efficient models including such interaction.
Research goals:
– Develop the coupling between the AMOEBA & SIBFA polarizable force fields with MBD.
– Assess models for deriving permanent and induced (static and fluctuating) moments and establish connections between them.
– Evaluate performance on small molecules, supramolecular and biological systems, and molecular crystals.
– Consider the transferability across chemical space of organic molecules using ML techniques in collaboration with Tkatchenko.
