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.

PhD scholarships are available in the group of Dr. Martina Lessio at the University of New South Wales (Sydney, Australia).
The scholarships are open to students from all countries and the ideal start date is term 3 2023 (deadline January 27th https://research.unsw.edu.au/key-dates). The scholarships cover tuition fees and includes a stipend.
Project description:
Our research group focuses on using computational tools for sustainability applications. See the group website for more details (https://sites.google.com/view/martina-lessio/). At the moment, I am particularly interested in having new students on board to work on the following projects:
Conversion of waste material to useful products
Development of new conservation treatments for artwork
Electrochemistry for HER on metal catalyst (this project involves experimental work in Prof. Richard Tilley's group at UNSW)
Requirements:
- Honours or Master’s degree in Chemistry, Materials Science or related disciplines
- Good written and oral communication skills; note that the candidate must satisfy UNSW English requirements at the time of application (https://www.international.unsw.edu.au/english-language-requirements)
- Ability to collaborate with other researchers, including experimentalists
- Experience in Computational Chemistry is highly desirable but not strictly required (e.g., if you have strong experimental background in an area relevant to the projects listed above).
Application instructions:
Please contact directly Dr. Martina Lessio ([email protected]) and attach:
CV
Transcripts
Honours or Master thesis
Links to any publication (if applicable)
English test results (if applicable)
Upon discussing with Dr. Lessio, the candidate will have to submit a formal application via the UNSW graduate school application portal https://research.unsw.edu.au/how-apply
