Postdoctoral position in theoretical/computational chemistry at Virginia Tech
We invite applications for a postdoctoral position in the group of Diego Troya at Virginia Tech. The research will focus on the development and application of theoretical techniques to investigate the dynamics of collisions between gases and organic surfaces. This research will leverage recent studies in our group of the dynamics of energy transfer and reaction in collisions of small closed-shell gases and radicals with self-assembled monolayers, (J. Chem. Phys. 132, 134307, (2010), J. Phys. Chem. A 113, 4155 (2009), J. Chem. Phys. 130, 084702 (2009)). Most of this work has been performed in close collaboration with molecular-beam experiments carried out in the John Morris group also at Virginia Tech, and this will continue in the current project.
Successful candidates will have a recent PhD in Computational/Theoretical Chemistry, and experience with electronic-structure calculations, molecular-dynamics simulations, and/or QM/MM technology will be an asset.
Letters of application, including a CV and the names and e-mail addresses of three references who can provide supporting letters should be sent directly via e-mail to [log in to unmask]
