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.

Italian Institute of Technology (IIT) and University of Genova (UniGe) are accepting applications for the 3-year PhD positions starting on November 1st, 2020. The research activities will be carried out at the Quantum Materials Theory Group at IIT led by Sergey Artyukhin. The courses will be organized jointly by UniGe Physics Department and IIT.
Our research is focused on providing a realistic description of various properties of materials by using simplified models and/or first-principles calculations. Of particular interest are ferroic materials that have a long-range order (such as ferroelectricity or a magnetic order), and multiferroics, where multiple orders coexist and interact.
Successful candidates will join an active and international research environment. They will collaborate with leading experimental and theoretical groups in the field and have access to modern computing infrastructure.
Prior experience with analytical or numerical model calculations, knowledge of Mathematica, other programming platforms, or experience with DFT codes will be advantageous for the position. Command of English, as well as ability to interact effectively with members of the research team, are mandatory.
