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.

ERC Funded PhD Fellowship on Hydrogen-bond Networks as Optical Probes (HyBOP)
Project:
The PhD fellowship is part of a highly interdisciplinary and ambitious project at the boundary between physics, chemistry and biology funded by an ERC grant and hosted at the International Center of Theoretical Physics (ICTP) and The Scuola Internazionale Superiore di Studi Avanzati (SISSA) that seeks to unravel the origins of luminescence in organic materials. The project aims to advance existing notions of our textbook understanding of the mechanism by which biological materials glow, with special focus on the role of water. This will be achieved with the help of advanced simulation techniques and modern tools of data science and machine-learning. The project will involve high-level international collaborations with leading experimentalists in the field as well as theoreticians from ICTP and SISSA. The long-term vision is to design an entirely new class of luminescent probes for use in medical diagnostics.
Research Fields: Physics, Chemical-Physics, Data-Science, Bio-luminescence, Machine-Learning, Electronic Structure
Qualification required: University degree (Master of Science/ Laurea Magistrale or Specialistica)
in Physics, Chemistry, Engineering.
