One or possibly two postdoctoral positions in
theoretical/computational quantum chemical reaction dynamics are available
in the group of
Prof. Evelyn Goldfield at Wayne State University.
One position will focus on
the quantum dynamics of chemical systems with four or more atoms
and involves both methods development
and applications. The computational aspect of the research includes harnessing
the power of parallel and grid computers for quantum reaction dynamics.
The other position focuses on developing methods to
study chemical reactions of systems confined within nanoscale environments such
as nanotubes.
Candidates should be
highly motivated and have a strong background in chemical physics,
dynamics, and computer programming. Experience with high performance computing
is desirable.
The initial appointment will be for one year.To
apply, please send a letter of interest, three letters of recommendation,
CV,
and publication list to
