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 Researcher positions at CNR-IOM, Trieste (It ... (No replies)
Back to Job listings...
The theory group at CNR-IOM (Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche - Istituto Officina dei Materiali, https://www.iom.cnr.it/research-facilities/facilities-labs/theory-simulation/) in Trieste, Italy, is opening two new positions, starting in early 2023. These are fixed-term Researcher positions (Ricercatore a tempo determinato), with full benefits and salary identical to permanent staff members. Contracts will be for 1-year, with funding already secured for extension to a second year. Funding for the two positions is provided by the Next Generation EU plan, through the following initiatives:
(1) National Centre for HPC, Big Data and Quantum Computing - Spoke on Materials and Molecular Sciences
(2) NEST: Network for Energy Sustainable Transition - Spoke on Clean Hydrogen
Research topics will involve the use of first-principles simulations to model materials and processes relevant to the transition to renewable energy sources. These include fuel cells, (photo)electrochemical devices, batteries, dye-sensitized solar cells. The projects will involve close collaborations with leading experimental groups active in the field and synergy with other projects funded through the same schemes.
Candidates are expected to have extensive experience in the field of first-principles simulations, with a solid track record in terms of publications. Moreover, candidates are expected to show the potential to develop independent research lines.
To express an interest in these positions, candidates should send an email to [email protected] including their CV, a cover letter and a list of three academic references.
Best regards,
Simone Piccinin
