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 Department of Physics in the Faculty of Mathematics and Science of the University of Jyväskylä is recruiting 

A POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCHER in PHYSICS.

We search for a motivated, career-driven researcher with a physics or physical chemistry background and a keen interest in computational materials modeling. The position starts on 1st May 2023 or as agreed, preliminarily for a fixed term of three years.

The researcher will join Professor Pekka Koskinen's research group at the Nanoscience Center and Department of Physics. The group investigates the mechanical and electromechanical properties of low-dimensional materials by computational methods, including elasticity theory, classical and quantum molecular dynamics simulations, and electronic structure simulations by density-functional theory and related methods. The researcher’s primary duty is to investigate the structure and functionality of two-dimensional elemental metals by density-functional simulations

You are the person we are looking for if you have or are just about to have a Ph.D. degree in physics or related field, are interested in computational materials research, and are eagerly pursuing an academic career. You have a good knowledge of materials physics, experience in scripting and programming, and background in atomistic materials modeling. You have excellent written and oral communication skills and can work independently. Experience in machine learning is considered an asset.

Deadline for the application is 5th February 2023. For more information and application details, see https://rekry.saima.fi/certiahome/open_job_view.html?did=5600&jc=12&id=000014301&lang=fi or contact Pekka Koskinen ([email protected]).
