Dear all, 

A PhD position is available immediately at the Theory Department of the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research (http://www.mpip-mainz.mpg.de/polymer_theory) in Mainz, Germany, in the field of Enhanced Sampling Methods for Soft Matter Simulations (http://www.mpip-mainz.mpg.de/~valsson/). The project will be supervised by Dr. Omar Valsson. 

In particular the PhD project will focus on the development of Variationally Enhanced Sampling (http://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.113.090601) and its application to soft matter systems. 

Applicants are required to have a Masters degree in physics, chemistry, materials science, chemical engineering, or related field. Experience with statistical mechanics and molecular simulations is required. Programming skills (e.g. python, C, C++) are also required.

To apply for the postion, or to obtain further information, please contact Dr. Omar Valsson through email at [log in to unmask]. The application should include a cover letter, CV and contact information of at least two references.

Regards,
Omar
