Postdoctoral positions are available in the group of Prof. Xin Xu and the group of Prof. Igor Ying Zhang at Department of Chemistry, Fudan University, Shanghai, China.  The research interests in our groups include but not limited to 1) the development of advanced density functional methods aiming at an accurate, yet tractable description of both weakly and strongly correlated systems and of both ground and excited states in both molecular and periodic systems; 2) the application of advanced XYG3-type density functional methods to the complicated systems in catalysis chemistry and materials science. We refer to http://www.xdft.org, https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=LvJYWPwAAAAJ&hl=en, and https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=BQ3vJmIAAAAJ&hl=en for more information.

Applicants must have a Ph.D. in computational chemistry or a closely related field (e.g. condensed matter physics and computational materials science) and experience working with at least one of electronic-structure calculations, MD/MC simulations, theoretical catalysis, computational materials science, machine learning, and big data analysis. Good written and oral English skills are required. Good programming skills (Fortran, C/C++, or Python) are highly preferred.

We will provide competitive salary package to eligible candidates, as well as a great working and living environment. Interested applicants please send your CV with the contact information of 2 to 3 academic references, directly to Prof. Xin Xu ([email protected]) and/or Prof. Igor Ying Zhang (igor_zhangying@fudan.edu.cn).
