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.

Description: Two postdoc positions are available in the Dr. Yongqing Cai group at the Institute of Applied Physics and Materials Engineering (IAPME) at the University of Macau (UM) in the area of computational materials and physics. The goals are to develop fundamental understanding of phenomena at atomic scale, including electronic structure, optical properties, and phononic and thermal conductions by using quantum simulations. The candidate should have have a solid knowledge of solid state physics and quantum mechanics and obtain appropriate experience in materials simulation. Any programming experience (e.g. Python, Matlab, and Fortran) will be an advantage.
Two types of Postdoctoral will be centrally funded by one of the following schemes under the UM Macao Talent Program:
a). UM Macao Postdoctoral Fellowship (Class A): Monthly remuneration of MOP40,000 (taxable). Annual conference and research related trips allowance of MOP20,000; Maximum contract period of 2 years.

Brief introduction of Macau: Macau is an unique city in Asia due to its European-Chinese culture after more than 300 years governed under Portuguese Empire between 1557 to 1887. It is a city built up on successful East-West cultural pluralism, mutual respect and tolerance between different cultures and civilizations. Its value lies not only in the completeness of the architectural and urban infrastructures, but also in the fact that these have retained their original function and spirit to the present day. Macau has a humid subtropical climate, characteristic of southern China. The territory is dual season dominant – summer (May to September) and winter (November to February) are the longest seasons, while spring (March and April) and autumn (October) are relatively brief periods.
