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.

The Ph.D. student position is offered under the project entitled "Statistical Learning of Slow Collective Variables from Atomistic Simulations," led by Dr. Jakub Rydzewski at the Institute of Physics, Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń, Poland. The project is financed by National Science Center in Poland (Sonata).
Modeling the long-timescale dynamics of biophysical and molecular systems is a fundamental task in the physical sciences. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations enable studying complex processes on microscopic spatiotemporal scales. However, such complex processes are often characterized by thousands of degrees of freedom which is very difficult to analyze in practice.
In this project, a machine-learning method will be devised to select a small number of physically-valid degrees of freedom in a near-blind manner, improving the analysis of MD simulations. This method will apply to long-timescale processes in chemistry, physics, and biology.
