Postdoctoral position: Electronic Structure of Materials with Strong Electron Correlations, Control and Design of Transition-Metal Oxides - University of Geneva.

The research agenda associated with this position is the control and design of materials with strong electronic correlations, especially transition-metal oxides and oxide heterostructures.

The position is based at the University of Geneva under the supervision of Antoine Georges. It also offers the opportunity of frequent scientific exchanges and collaborations with experimental groups based at the Department of Quantum Matter Physics of this University (http://dqmp.unige.ch), as well as tight contacts with A.Georges' main research group based at the College de France in Paris.

The position will be funded by the Swiss National Foundation in the framework of the MARVEL project and collaborative network (http://nccr-marvel.ch/fr/project), which gathers a number of teams involved in computational materials design in Switzerland.

In applying for this position, please consider the following *requirements*:

i. Confirmed expertise in first-principle electronic structure methods, as well as a familiarity with the basic aspects of materials with strong electronic correlations. Furthermore, experience with dynamical mean-field theory and DFT+DMFT would be much appreciated.

ii. Independence in conducting a research project.

iii. Ability to collaborate and interact with experimental groups.

The starting date is flexible (early 2016 to Fall 2016). For full consideration, applications should be sent as soon as possible, but will be accepted until the position(s) are filled.

Please send a cv, research summary and publication list, and arrange three letters of support to be sent to:
