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.

Applications are invited for Postdoctoral Research Associate
positions in the Marx Group at Bochum (www.theochem.rub.de)
which are available immediately or upon mutual agreement
for two years with possible extensions. The researchers will be
involved in challenging projects using and/or advancing modern
ab initio simulation techniques including state-of-the-art
machine learning extensions. Our reseach is very collaborative
and often involves joint projects in teams with experimental
partners and other theory groups. Our topics cover e.g.
aqueous interfaces, vibrational spectroscopy or quantum
cryochemistry always using cutting-edge methods such as those
based on path integrals and artificial neural networks;
check our homepage and our recent publications.

The Center for Theoretical Chemistry at RUB offers an exciting
interdisciplinary research environment and excellent facilities
including several in-house HPC platforms. The Marx Group is
among the scientific pillars of the Cluster of Excellence RESOLV
(www.solvation.de) and is deeply involved in the Center for
Solvation Science ZEMOS (www.rub.de/zemos), which hosts a
powerful Core Facility for Simulation. The Research Associates
will take full advantage of being integrated into RESOLV and ZEMOS.

Information on the simulation techniques we use and develop at
CTC are accessible via http://www.theochem.rub.de/go/cprev.html
whereas fundamentals are provided in D. Marx and J. Hutter,
Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics: Basic Theory and Advanced Methods
(Cambridge, 2009). Our latest methodological developments
including those of highly accurate ML-potentials can be found
in our most recent research and review articles.

Candidates should have significant experience in molecular dynamics/
electronic structure and a PhD in computational/theoretical
chemistry/physics. Please send your CV as a PDF file to:

Professor Dominik Marx
Lehrstuhl für Theoretische Chemie
Ruhr-Universität Bochum
44780 Bochum, Germany
[email protected] | http://www.theochem.rub.de

At Ruhr-Universität Bochum, we wish to promote careers of women
in areas in which they have been underrepresented, and we would
therefore like to encourage female candidates to send us their
applications. Applications by suitable candidates with severe
disabilities and other applicants with equal legal status are
likewise most welcome.

Consideration of candidates will begin immediately and continue
until the positions are filled.
