Provide Description

The College of Oulu is without doubt one of the greatest and most multidisciplinary universities in Finland. We create new data and improvements that assist to unravel world challenges. We give you a world and provoking working surroundings the place you might be given accountability and might use your expertise, develop your self and do work that issues. Our versatile and family-friendly office makes it straightforward so that you can stability work and leisure. The College of Oulu is ranked within the high 3% of the world´s universities. 

We are actually searching for

a Postdoctoral Researcher (2 years)

to affix within the NMR Analysis Unit on the School of Science.

We’re an internationally established, mixed experimental and theoretical crew of about 30 individuals, of which 50% with a PhD diploma. We develop experimental, theoretical, and computational analysis strategies based mostly on magnetic resonance phenomena and apply these strategies to topical issues in molecular and supplies sciences. Our power is within the tight connection between state-of-the-art measurements and calculations. We’ve got an open and inspiring working environment and have a considerable observe file in profitable funding functions each on the Academy of Finland and in EU packages.

CPU-intensive computational analysis is carried out within the amenities of the nationwide supercomputer heart (CSC)in addition to within the European Excessive-Efficiency Computing Joint Endeavor (EuroHPC JU) supercomputer LUMI. Native Linux cluster belonging to the Finnish Computing Competence Infrastructure (FCCI) are used for high-throughput manufacturing calculations.

Topic subject and outline of the positions

The postdoctoral place is part of the Academy of Finland analysis venture: NMR parameter modelling of porous supplies:relativistic, dynamic, and environmental results led by College Researcher Perttu Lantto.

The venture goals to develop environment friendly approaches to mannequin NMR parameters in massive molecular programs at actual bodily situations. That is achieved by combining state-of-the-art quantum chemical (QC) strategies at relativistic stage for heavy-element containing programs with atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulations using trendy semi-empirical and machine studying (ML) approaches. The work is carried out in shut collaboration with native and worldwide experimental NMR researchers, the place modeling is important half offering predictions and microscopic interpretations of experimental observations. As a post-doctoral researcher, you’ll give attention to creating QM/MD/ML-methods for big length- and time-scale simulations in new porous supplies. The developed approaches may have nice influence on supplies NMR research.

Required {qualifications} and evaluation

It’s essential to have a accomplished doctoral diploma in physics, chemistry, supplies science, or a associated subject, and present a visual scientific profile. We anticipate you to have expertise in first rules modelling and/or MD simulations. Additionally, some data of ML potentials in atomistic simulations is an asset. Robust pc expertise together with fundamental Linux/Unix data, shell scripting, and mastery of at the very least one related programming language (e.g., Python, Fortran, C/C++) is required for achievement within the venture.

Fluent English, good communication and teamwork expertise are required.
