A post-doctoral position in computational chemistry is available in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at George Mason University (Fairfax, VA) under the direction of Prof. Andre Clayborne. The research will focus on developing a machine learning protocol for identifying molecules for quantum information systems and molecular electronics. Additionally, the researcher will be using simulation methods to understand the electronic properties of various molecules. The candidate will be part of a multidisciplinary team involving experimentalists and industrial partners.

Applicants must have a Ph.D. in chemistry, chemical engineering, physics, bio-informatics, or related fields. The ideal candidate should meet the following requirements:

• Possess knowledge of Computational Chemistry/Physics Software packages
• Be able to demonstrate strong skills in Python and related machine learning packages; and
• Candidates must possess the ability to work independently and collaboratively as part of a multi-disciplinary team.

 The position is for 1-year and may be extended upon mutual agreement. For full consideration, please apply by 06/30/21 at https://jobs.gmu.edu/ position number F067Az
