Job announcements relevant to people interested in electronic structure calculations…

Due to the large number of posts recently, there is currently a 3-4 week delay between posts being submitted and emails being sent to the mailing list. Please bear with us while we try to improve this.

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. Topics cover e.g. aqueous interfaces,
vibrational spectroscopy or quantum cryochemistry using cutting-edge
methods such as those based on path integrals and artificial
neural networks; check the homepage and 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.
Note that we are operational on university campus even in current
covid-19 pandemic times.

Information on the simulation techniques used and developed 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).

Candidates should have significant experience in molecular dynamics /
electronic structure and a PhD in computational / theoretical
chemistry / physics. Candidates should send a two page resume
including a short outline of their previous research expertise
and achievements as well as their own thoughts on aforementioned
topics together with the usual material as a PDF file to:

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

The Ruhr-Universitaet Bochum seeks to foster the careers of women,
especially in areas where they are currently underrepresented, and
therefore encourages applications of women in particular.
Qualified disabled candidates are explicitly invited to apply.

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