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 Section for Atomic Scale Materials Modelling at DTU Energy is looking for an outstanding candidate for a 2-year postdoc positions in the field of atomistic modeling of organic battery materials. The project entails developing and applying methods for comprehensive atomic-scale simulations of polymer electrode materials and electrolytes for metal-ion batteries as well as electroactive molecules for organic redox flow batteries.
Responsibilities and qualifications
The successful applicant will develop and apply a range of computational methods to simulate properties of a diverse set of organic battery materials. The research will be strongly linked to several externally funded battery projects carried out in the Section. The methodological toolbox will include classical molecular dynamics, density functional theory, and hybrid QM/MM approaches.
A qualified applicant will have expertise in one or more of the following topics:
- Classical molecular dynamics simulations of organic materials or macromolecules
- Development of polarizable force fields
- Development or advanced applications of condensed-phase electronic structure methods (e.g. molecular dynamics, QM/MM, solvation models)
Prior experience with battery or other electrochemical materials is advantageous but not required.
As a formal qualification, you must hold a PhD degree (or equivalent).
Application procedure
Your complete online application must be submitted no later than 20 June 2021 (Danish time).
