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.
Two Postdoc Openings at Nanyang Technological Un ... (No replies)
Back to Job listings...
Our group, located at the School of Chemical and Biomedical Engineering, Nanyang Technological University, has two openings for postdoctoral researchers!
We employ first principles methods, statistical thermodynamics, kinetic modelling, and machine learning, to understand how catalysts operate at the atomic scale. We then leverage this understanding to design next-generation catalysts that possess enhanced stability, reactivity, and selectivity.
The two openings are linked to projects aimed at developing sustainable energy solutions for a hydrogen economy.
- Developing catalysts for the sustainable production of hydrogen using liquid organic hydrogen carrier technology. This multi-disciplinary industry/academia collaboration aims to develop technological solutions that will enable Singapore to import green hydrogen in the near future.
