The laboratory of Assistant Professor Elvira Sayfutyarova in the Department of Chemistry, at The Pennsylvania State University, is looking for an enthusiastic and qualified postdoctoral researcher with a strong background in quantum chemistry. Research projects involve the development of electronic structure methods for simulating magnetic and infrared spectra, machine learning methods for transition metal complexes, efficient approaches of investigating photochemical reactions, and automation of molecular simulation workflows.
Candidates should have a Ph.D. in theoretical/computational/quantum chemistry or chemical engineering/physics (or a related discipline with molecular simulations expertise). Significant experience in both the C/C++/Python programming and computational chemistry is highly desirable.
This is a limited-term appointment funded for one-year from the date of hire, subject to a renewal for the second year based on performance and mutual agreement. Review of applicants will begin immediately and continue until the position is filled.
Interested and qualified applicants should send a cover letter describing your background, prior training, and research interests, as well as a CV which includes a list of publications to: sayfutyarova [at] psu [dot] edu.
