Postdoctoral position in computational nanoscience at the University of Helsinki, Finland A postdoctoral position is available in the Laboratory of Physical Chemistry for one year and five months starting September 1st 2006. The salary is 2600 - 3200 euro per month. The successful candidate is expected to carry out computational research in the field of nanoscience, where we are particularly interested in metal clusters on semiconductor surfaces and in molecules adsorbed on catalytic metal surfaces. See J. Phys. Chem. B 109, 8954-8960 (2005) for our publication in the related field. The Helsinki computational chemistry/molecular spectroscopy group has excellent computational and experimental facilities, and is part of the Finnish Center of Excellence in Computational Molecular Science. The research group consists of about 10 people. Our laboratory is located in the Chemistry Department building in the new Kumpula science campus area. Helsinki, being Finland’s capital, is a vibrant city that offers many cultural events all year round. Finland is particularly attractive due to its wild nature, which includes tens of thousands of lakes and islands. There are excellent opportunities for both summer and winter sports activities.
