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.

IFP Energies nouvelles is funding two positions (one post-doc and one PhD) in the field of the simulation of platinum-based supported metal catalysts, in the context of the ROAD4CAT project (RatiOnAl Design of CATalysts, from the genesis to the properties of supported active phases, chair: P. Raybaud, IDEXLYON – IFP Energies nouvelles).
The PhD deals with the simulation of the mechanisms taking place during the genesis of the active phase, from the metallic precursors to supported single atoms, then to sub-nanometric clusters (see details). The post-doc deals with the simulation of the catalytic properties of bimetallic clusters, for dehydrogenation reactions.
