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.
Postdoc position in ab-initio modelling at the U ... (No replies)
Back to Job listings...
Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral position at the University of
Modena and Reggio Emilia, Italy. The position is for 2 years. The yearly
total of the research grant is € 22.054 net of social security contributions
to be paid by the Administration. The amount of the grant is paid to the
beneficiary in monthly installments. The hiring should possibly take place by the
end of September 2023. For this reason, applications from researchers that are
already in Europe (or that can obtain a residence permit in a short time) will be
highly appreciated. The research project relies on the use/development of advanced
HPC ab-initio tools for computational design of novel materials for photocatalytic,
photovoltaics and electronic applications. Theoretical investigations will be performed
within the Density Functional Theory, the Many Body Perturbation Theory and
eventually with multi-scale approaches.
Personal Specification:
We are looking for a skilled and highly motivated candidate with a solid
background in Physics and Condensed Matter theory. Proven
knowledge of Density Functional Theory and Many Body Perturbation
Theory methods constitutes a clear advantage. Programming skills in
Python and Fortran, as well as knowledge of high performance
computing are considered a plus.
Applicants must hold a PhD degree in Physics, Chemistry, Computer
Science, Materials Science and Engineering or similar fields.
Expression of Interest:
We strongly encourage the possible candidates to send an expression
of interest to Prof. Ivan Marri ([email protected]) and Prof. Elena Degoli
([email protected]). Candidates should include a detailed CV
containing a list of publications, a detailed description of both scientific
and computational background and the name and email address of at
least one referee who might be contacted for a letter of reference.
The deadline for the expression of interest is September 5th, 2023.
