Subject: 08.06.24 Post-Doctoral Position in Computational Chemistry and Biophysics: University of Delaware
Post-Doctoral: University of Delaware (Chemistry Biochemistry Dept.)
We are searching for highly motivated and driven individuals looking for
research opportunities in a wide variety of research within the general
realm of computational chemistry. Current topics of interest to the PI
include:
1. Development, Testing, Coding, Application of Polarizable Force Fields
2. Exploration of Aqueous Liquid-Vapor Interfaces via Molecular
Dynamics Simulations Using Polarizable and Non-Polarizable Force Fields
3. Studies of Properties of Lipid Membranes arising from application of
Polarizable Force Fields
4. Protein-Ligand Binding
5. Hardware-Based Acceleration of Molecular Dynamics Simulations
with particular focus on GPU Cards
6. Development of Charge Transfer Force Fields
7. Investigation of Phase-Dependent Polarization Effects and
Implications for Interfacial Systems
Candidates should send a C.V. and the names and email addresses of
3 (three) individuals in the capacity of mentors, advisors, etc. The
candidates should have a strong background in statistical mechanics,
quantum mechanics, molecular modeling (MD, MC, ab initio / DFT ). Ideal
candidates would have equal strengths in MD and ab initio methods with
proven track record of publshing in both areas; particular focus on
biophysical research topics are highly desirable. Strong programming
skills (Unix, Linux, C++, Fortran, Perl, Python, shell scripting) are
required.
Interested applicants are encouraged to initiate contact
via email: Professor Sandeep Patel
