Job announcements relevant to people interested in electronic structure calculations…

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.

We are looking for candidates interested in the research project entitled "Multi-scale Modeling of Hydrogen Storage in Nanoscrolls". The position is at the Institute of Physics of the State University of Campinas (Brazil), under supervision of Prof. Douglas S. Galvão.

The main goal is to develop a theoretical model to the process of hydrogen storage in nanoscrolls of different materials. Due to their large contact area and open edges, nanoscrolls can be considered better candidates than conventional nanotubes

Requirements:

We are looking for candidates with:

(a) initiative, independence and interested in interdisciplinary research;

(b) excellent academic records;

(c) Fluent in English;

(d) previous experience with molecular dynamics simulations (classical, reactive and ab initio);

(e) Candidates must have finished his/her PhD after 2011.

How to apply: Applications should be made by e-mail. The deadline is February 18th, 2017.

It should be directed to Prof. Douglas Galvão ([email protected])

For application, please attach to the e-mail message:

  1. The identification of the position: HYDROGEN STORAGE CEPID;
  2. Letter explaining his/her interests and abilities to carry out the project.
  3. Resume with a list published articles

Selection: The selection will be made mainly based on the letter of interest and resume. If necessary a skype interview will also be made.

This opportunity is open to candidates of any nationalities. The selected candidate will receive a FAPESP Post-Doctoral fellowship in the amount of R$ 6,819.30 (US$2,000.00 approximately) monthly and a travel fund equivalent to 15% of the annual value of the fellowship.
