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 Positions in Paris-Saclay University (No replies)
Back to Job listings...
The group “Theory and Modelling” at the University of Evry-Paris Saclay (LAMBE, UMR CNRS 8587) is currently seeking candidates for PhD positions. Deadline for applications is 11th April 2016, for starting dates in Sept-Oct 2016.
The group is internationally recognized for its expertise in ab initio molecular dynamics simulations (AIMD: DFT-MD, MP2-MD, semi empirical-MD, QM-MM-MD), with original research activities in the gas phase, liquid phase and at interfaces between solids and liquids & between liquids and air. 4 ANR funding are currently active, 2 of them in collaborative works with the USA, 1 with Germany, and 1 with IFPEN petroleum company.
4 PhD positions are opened and are described in more details on the website of the Paris-Saclay Doctoral School “Chemical Sciences” 2MIB (http://www.universite-paris-saclay.fr/fr/formation/doctorat/sciences-chimiques-molecules-materiaux-instrumentation-et-biosystemes-2mib, click on ‘Sujets de Thèse’ & ‘Offre de sujets de projets doctoraux’). Subjects are described in French and in English.
Opened research topics for PhDs are:
- Ab initio molecular dynamics (DFT-MD, AIMD) for anharmonic vibrational spectroscopy of gas phase molecules and clusters. Director : Prof Marie-Pierre Gaigeot, Contact [email protected]
- Ab initio molecular dynamics simulations (AIMD) of solid/liquid and liquid/air nanometric interfaces : structures, dynamics, chemical reactivity, vibrational spectroscopy at heterogeneous interfaces. Director : Prof Marie-Pierre Gaigeot, Contact [email protected]
- Theoretical mass spectrometry of proteins. Director : Dr Riccardo Spezia, Contact [email protected]
- Synthesis of molecules with astrophysical interest by molecular dynamics simulations. Director : Dr Riccardo Spezia, Contact [email protected]
We welcome candidates with background in Chemistry, Physics, Chemical-Physics, Master courses with a large component in theory and simulations, good knowledge in solid state physics would be a plus for one of the subjects, knowledge of one coding langage would be welcome.
