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.

A three-year PhD scholarship on computational design of thermoelectric materials is vacant in the material theory group of Assoc. Prof. Kristian Berland at the Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU). The project is part of a strategic initiative to link research activity at the REALTEK faculty with the strong and growing data science environment.

The project will combine high-throughput density functional theory calculations with machine-learning methods to accelerate the design and assessment of thermoelectric materials.

The student will benefit from co-supervision by Prof O.M Løvvik at SINTEF/University of Oslo. The project will also involve a collaboration with the group of Prof. G. Madsen group in TU Wien with possibilities for an extended research visit in the Madsen group. 

Tasks include: Implementation of computational methodology to evaluate thermoelectric properties. Theoretical analysis of material properties. High-throughput density functional theory calculations. Use of machine learning techniques.
