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.

Back to Job listings...
Two post-doctoral positions will soon be opened at CNR-NANO Modena. The positions are sponsored by the national research programme PRIN 2022 to conduct ab-initio modelling of 2d materials and heterostructures for energy applications, including theoretical spectroscopy simulations, in collaboration with Italian and international experimental groups.
Interested candidates are encouraged to send an expression of interest by writing an email to [email protected], including a CV and the contact details of at least two reference persons.
Applicant profile: we are looking for skilled and highly motivated candidates, with a solid background in computational condensed matter physics / chemistry / materials science. Proven experience with Density Functional Theory / Many-Body Perturbation Theory / Machine Learning methods constitutes a clear advantage. Programming skills in Python / Fortran, as well as previous experience with high-performance computing are considered a plus. Applicants must hold a PhD degree in Physics, Chemistry, Materials Science or alike.
Host institution: Nanoscience Institute of the National Research Council (CNR-NANO), Modena (Italy). The team at CNR-NANO has recognized expertise in simulating ground- and excited-states properties in low-dimensional materials with ab-initio approaches, including beyond mean
field theories.
Reference people: Dr. Andrea Ferretti, Dr. Deborah Prezzi. See http://www.nano.cnr.it for details.
Details of the position: two 1-year contracts, renewable on the basis of mutual satisfaction and fund availability. Expected starting date: April 2024. For further details send an expression of interest.
