There is a postdoc position open at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. The successful candidate will work with a DOE-supported collaboration QMC-HAMM on multiscale physics, led by David Ceperley including Elif Ertekin, Harley Johnson, Matthew Turk, and Lucas Wagner. In this collaboration, we are developing software to link information from highly accurate quantum Monte Carlo methods to coarse-grained descriptions of materials. The focus of the collaboration is in the metal-insulator transition of hydrogen and in two-dimensional materials, including bilayer graphene.

To apply, you should have data and programming skills, as well as familiarity with electronic structure methods and an interest to understand the link between multiple physics scales. The position will start in August of 2020, although that time is negotiable. For full consideration, apply by Dec 15, although applications may be considered after that time.
