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.
Postdoctoral position: Computational modeling of ... (No replies)
Back to Job listings...
A postdoctoral position in the newly founded Computational Biotechnology group at the RWTH Aachen University in Germany is available. We offer a fixed-term contract for one year, extendable up to three years.
Job Description
Computational modeling of nanopores in materials for sensing biomolecules will be modelled at the level of density functional theory, as well as ab initio and atomistic Molecular Dynamics. The simulations will be complex as they will involve materials, solvents, and (bio)molecules. In addition, Machine Learning approaches will be used to analyze relevant experimental data.
Requirements
The position requires a university PhD degree in the Natural Sciences. Specifically, candidates with the following qualifications are encouraged to apply:
-strong theoretical background in one of Physics/Chemistry/Biology
-strong experience with computer simulations in the Natural Sciences
-experience with Machine Learning algorithms
-above average academic achievements
-enthusiasm to learn beyond your individual research topic
-willingness to actively collaborate with other researchers and disseminate research in different formats.
