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.

There is an immediate opening for a postdoc position in modeling electrocatalysis by density functional theory (DFT) in the group of Tore Brinck at the KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm. The research project is aimed at developing catalysts for electrochemical reactions. Catalytic systems that are considered include crystalline materials, 2-D materials, nanoparticles and single atom catalysts. Characterization of catalysts will involve mechanistic studies as well as the use of DFT based local surface descriptors that are currently being developed in the group. Data from the DFT calculations and experimental data will be analyzed using machine learning (MI) to develop predictive models for catalyst design.
A doctoral degree in chemistry, physics, material science or related areas is required. The applicant should have experience in modeling chemical processes and materials using density functional theory (DFT) and a good knowledge of physical chemistry. Knowledge in coding and experience of software development is meriting.
This is a full-time position for at the most two years.
