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.

Project Synopsis:
This project aims at the exploration of chemical space from a network-centric perspective. We propose to investigate molecular similarity networks using different families of molecular descriptors and similarity measures. The application of various network measures to the design of diversity oriented molecular libraries is a major goal of this project.
Objectives:
Nature of work:
ab initio electronic structure computations; cheminformatics / statistical analysis; coding / scripting in Python, Java, R, C/C++ ; graphical / network analysis. The candidates will work in an inter-disciplinary project, and will be required to interact with faculty, students and researchers across the Departments of Chemistry, Mathematics, Physics and the Center for Informatics.
Essential and Desirable Qualifications:
The candidate should have a Ph.D. in Mathematics, Chemistry or Physics from a UGC recognized University with strong computational and programming skills and competence in Python, Java, R or C/C++ (essential), Network theory (essential) and Game theory (desirable) OR a proven record of publications in cheminformatics or bioinformatics (desirable). Candidates should be NET JRF qualified. Candidate without such qualifications may be hired at a salary based on experience.
Scrutiny of applications will begin on 15 February, 2019, and continue until the position is filled.
