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.

Back to Job listings...
A Research Associate position is available immediately in the Computational NanoElectrochemistry group at Imperial College London
Duration: 13 months, with possibility of extension up to April 30th 2024.
Application deadline: November 10th 2022
Please follow the link below to apply and for more info
https://www.imperial.ac.uk/jobs/description/NAT01297/research-associate-computational-modelling-electrochemical-interfaces-nanoscale
This position is in the framework of a multidisciplinary project funded by EPSRC, on developing and applying new theoretical methodologies to enable the realistic modelling of electrochemical systems in operando. Our team works in parallel to (i) develop the theoretical and computational tools to simulate electrified interfaces under potential control (i) understand fundamental electro-catalytic phenomena at electrified interfaces for energy and nanotechnology (ii) unravel fundamental current and bias induced effects at nanointerfaces.
You will work on the theoretical modelling of fundamental phenomena within the double layer of electrified metal-water interfaces under potential control. Main focus will be on thermodynamics and kinetics of electrocatalytic processes underlying energy conversion and corrosion. You benchmark and pioneer the techniques newly developed by the group and may carry out some code development activities. You will be closely interacting with the rest of the group and main developers of Smeagol and CP2K codes.
Previous knowledge and/or experience with modelling electrified interfaces, DFT based molecular dynamics, potential and free energy methods, as well as use/development of CP2K code is desirable.
Cheers,
Clotilde
