Postdoc in Computational Spectroscopy of Biomole ... (No replies)

Jógvan Magnus Haugaard Olsen
4 years ago

A 2-year postdoc in computational spectroscopy of biomolecular systems is available at DTU Chemistry, Technical University of Denmark. The successful candidate will join the research group led by Assistant Professor Jógvan Magnus Haugaard Olsen. The position is funded through a Villum Young Investigator grant. The starting date is 15 November 2021 (or according to mutual agreement).

The project involves development of computational methodology that will make it possible to simulate a wide range of spectroscopic techniques applied to large and complex biomolecular systems, such as proteins, cell membranes, and nucleic acids. The methodology will be based on multiscale modeling and fragmentation approaches aimed at ground- and excited-state molecular dynamics and embedding methods for electronic-structure calculations of spectroscopic properties.

Responsibilities and qualifications
The project involves theoretical development of multiscale and fragmentation methods aimed at biomolecular systems, implementation of the methods in new and/or existing software packages, and computational studies applying the methods on biochemical and biophysical problems.

The successful candidate has a strong background in theoretical and computational chemistry (or equivalent), programming skills (e.g., Fortran or C/C++ and Python), knowledge of good scientific software development practices, and experience with high-performance computing.

As a formal qualification, you must hold a PhD degree (or equivalent).

Further information
Further information may be found in the job posting or by contacting Jógvan Magnus Haugaard Olsen ([email protected]). The application deadline is 15 September 2021 (Danish time).
