An exceptional Post Doc candidate is required to carry out a
collaborative research project between the group of Dr. Giuseppe Milano and an a well known
industrial partner (ST Microelectronics).
The project involves the development and application of new molecular
simulation methods at atomistic and coarse-grained level to polymeric
materials relevant in Nanoelectronics.
Experience in modifying and writing Molecular Dynamics and/or Monte
Carlo codes (not simply using packages) is required.
The appointment is for one year with the possibility of a yearly
renewalthereafter.
The research group has good computational facilities, and friendly
atmosphere.
Computational facilities at Molnac include local workstations, two
beowulf cluster, and access to large computer resources via membership at the
main supercomputer centres in Europe.
Please send a CV and names of 3 references to Dr. Giuseppe Milano
([email protected]).
Postdoctoral position to perform studies on computational organometallic
chemistry with Prof. Dr. Luigi Cavallo in the Department of Chemistry
at the University of Salerno, Italy.
The group directed by Prof. Cavallo
is a leading group in the understanding of the mechanics of real size
catalytic systems. The group has excellent computational facilities,
and a friendly atmosphere. Salerno is a pleasent seaside city in southern
Italy, very close to the Amalfi coast and 2.5 hours from Rome.
The applicant is expected to contribute to an European Research Program
focused on the development and understanding of olefin metathesis
catalyzed by transition metal complexes. Part of the project also
requires development of software for the effective computational
screening of a large numbers of potentially active catalysts.
Close collaboration with experimental partners, both in the academia and
in the industry, is expected. So that the applicant should have
experience for a fruitful interaction with an experimental counterpart.
This is a very challenging and integrated project, so that the applicant
shoud be very motivated and it is expected she/he will contribute new ideas.
Applicants should have experience in two or more of the following:
A) Static quantum mechanics methods
B) Molecular dynamics simulations
C) Scientific programming
Position is for 1 year, renewable up to 3 years.
Please send a CV and name of 3 references to Prof. Dr. Luigi Cavallo
