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.

Applications are invited for one posdoctoral position in the field of ab initio simulations of interactions between water molecules and different solid surfaces including metals and different oxides with potential applications for water splitting.

The successful candidate will be based at the Institute for Theoretical Physics (IFT) at the State Univerisity of São Paulo, in São Paulo - Brazil. The position is inserted within a wider FAPESP-funded Thematic Projected titled "Interfaces in materials: electronic, magnetic, structural and transport properties". A strong collaboration with other members of the project - both experimental as well as theoretical - is expected.

Candidates are required to have a Ph.D. in Physics, Chemistry, Materials Science or a related field. Experience in ab initio density functional theory methods is a requirement. Knowledge of advanced methods such as the combination of DFT with Non-equilibrium Green's functions, and/or Machine Learning are a plus.

The initial appointment is for a period of two years with the possibility of an extension dependent on the candidate's performance.

IFT-Unesp is a world class Physics Institute located in the city of São Paulo - Brazil.  It hosts the South American Institute for Fundamental Research (ICTP-SAIFR), a center affiliated to ICTP in Trieste. 

Interested candidates should send a copy of their CV, a cover letter, and the names and contact information of, at least 2 people who can give a fair assessment of the candidate's work to Prof. Alexandre Reily Rocha, [email protected] until the 8th of October.
