A postdoctoral position modeling polariton chemistry and exciton-polariton optical properties will be available in Fall 2022 in the group of Christine Isborn in the Department of Chemistry at the University of California, Merced. This project will involve working closely with experimentalists to model optical and vibrational properties of chromophores strongly coupled to light. Desired qualifications include modeling the electronic structure and properties of excited states, using QM/MM methods, and running molecular dynamics simulations, experience in coding in python, and good communication skills.

Salary is competitive and commensurate with experience, with benefits included.  The initial appointment is for one-year, with possibility for renewal by mutual agreement.

Applicants should email the following documents to Prof. Christine Isborn:  
1) cover letter
2) curriculum vitae
3) list of three potential references
