Subject: 08.06.17 Postdoctoral Position in Computational/Theoretical Physical Chemistry, The University of Western Ontario, CA
A postdoctoral position is available immediately in the area of computer
simulations of chemical reactions in condensed phase at the Department of
Chemistry, The University of Western Ontario, London, ON Canada.
The research projects focus on the development of novel methods for
studying chemical reactions in condensed phase modelled at the molecular
level. A relevant article is ``Detecting reaction pathways and computing
reaction rates in condensed phase'', S. Consta, Theoretical Chemistry
Accounts, vol. 116, pp. 373-382, 2006.
The projects will also involve applications in systems important for
chemistry and biochemistry. The reactions are investigated using methods
of Molecular Dynamics, Monte Carlo and methods of mixed quantum-classical
dynamics.
The requirements for the candidates are:
Strong knowledge of free energy and chemical reaction rate simulation
techniques and their application in molecular simulations;
Extensive experience with Molecular Dynamics and Monte Carlo methods;
Solid computer skills (knowledge of scripting and programming languages,
experience with high performance computing facilities ).
Interested postdoctoral applicants are invited to send a curriculum vitae, list
of recent and most important publications in the area of theoretical,
computational chemistry or chemical physics or statistical physics and names
and contact information of two referees to:
