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.
Three-year postdoctoral research position in the ... (No replies)
Back to Job listings...
We offer a three-year position in the Theory Department of the Fritz Haber Institute in Berlin, Germany. You will be working with Prof. Dr. Matthias Scheffler, the departments director, and Dr. Matthias Rupp, the leader of the newly established research group "Machine Learning for Materials".
This is an opportunity to be on the forefront of development for models that combine quantum mechanical materials science with machine learning. This research direction is rapidly gaining interest and momentum, and offers the opportunities of a young field. Work will start from the Novel Materials Discovery Repository (NoMaD). Based on this, the researcher will be involved in the design, development and application of state-of-the-art machine learning models for properties and functions of molecules and materials.
Ideal candidates will have a background in physics and computer science, in particular solid knowledge in condensed matter physics and kernel-based machine learning, an excellent track record of relevant scientific publications, and sound programming skills in C, C++ or Fortran, as well as Python or Mathematica.
