A 12 months postdoc position (with possibility to extend up to a maximum of 18 months) is available in Grenoble at SIMaP to work on ab initio (DFT and quantum chemistry methods to compute excited states) and classical modeling (MD and GCMC) of metal organic frameworks for carbon capture. Candidates should possess a PhD in chemistry, physics or in related disciplines and experience in the calculations excited states in molecules is preferred. The candidate is expected to work in collaboration with a PhD student and a few researchers in Grenoble and in the US on the understanding of novel uptake processes that involve electronic transitions.  Good communication skills and the capability to work independently are necessary. The position is available immediately.
