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.

Postdoctoral and PhD positions are available to work on combining density functional theory calculations and machine learning (ML) for the high-throughput screening of hybrid organic-inorganic halide perovskites as part of an Air Force Office of Scientific Research funded effort. A particular focus will be on assessing the reliability of the ML predictions (Sutton et al., Nat. Commun. 2020, 11, 4428).
The work will be carried out in Christopher Sutton’s group at the University of South Carolina and will be performed in close collaboration with Gabor Csanyi at the University of Cambridge, with the potential for travel once restrictions are eased.
The successful postdoctoral candidate will hold a Ph.D. in Materials Science, Physics, Chemistry, or a related discipline and have experience in scientific programming, atomistic simulations and/or ML. Excellent oral and written communication skills and the ability to work well in a collaborative research environment are essential.
The initial postdoctoral appointment will be for one year and can be renewed up to three years subject to satisfactory performance. Interested candidates should send a brief cover letter, CV, and contact information of two references as a single PDF file to: [email protected]
