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 in DFT+DMFT (No replies)

Postdoctoral position in DFT+DMFT:
A postdoctoral position is available immediately in the area of density functional theory (DFT) + dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) method to develop a deeper understanding of correlated materials.
The position is to be held in the department of Physics & Astronomy in the research group of Prof. Subhasish Mandal in the computational quantum materials group at West Virginia University (WVU).
Experience with first-principles DFT is essential, and a background in DMFT and/or machine learning is highly desirable. A Ph.D. in the physical sciences (Physics, Chemistry, or Materials Science) is required and experience with programming (such as Python) is expected. Candidates with prior experience in DMFT would be given preference. The postdoc will collaborate with data scientists at NIST, Maryland, and experimentalists within WVU and outside.
This position is full-time and benefit eligible. The appointment is for 2 years, which can be renewed for a third year depending on mutual agreement and funding availability.
Interested candidates should send a cover letter together with a CV (including the list of publications and names of references) to Subhasish Mandal ([email protected]) at their earliest convenience.
WVU is an R1 research land grant university located within 90 minutes of Pittsburgh and 3.5 hours from the Washington/Baltimore area. Morgantown has been recognized as one of the most livable small cities in the U.S. There are extensive recreational opportunities, excellent public schools, and a supportive University environment.
