Max Planck Institute for Dynamics of Complex Technical Systems is inviting applications for a postdoctoral researcher. The position is available in research group ‘Molecular Simulations and Design’ headed by Dr Matthias Stein, working on structure-based multiscale simulations in chemistry and biology.
About the position:
- The selected Postdoc Researcher (m/f/d) will perform QM/MM simulations of enzymatic systems with a focus on spectroscopic observables.
- In close collaboration with experimental partners, advanced computational methods will be used to elucidate enzymatic reaction mechanisms by computing spectroscopic features to elucidate reaction intermediates.
- The position is for a period of one year (starting on 1st January 2020).
Requirements:
- Applications are open to candidates with a doctorate in Computational/Theoretical Chemistry or Physics
- Experience with QM/MM calculations and/or biophysical simulations techniques
- Experience in programming (C/C++) and methods development is highly advantageous.
- Successful candidates should be highly motivated, have excellent interpersonal and communication skills, be able to work independently, and favor interdisciplinary communication across disciplines and creative
Applications:
Application to be sent as a single pdf file to Matthias.stein@mpi-magdeburg.mpg.de including:
- CV
- List of publications
- Contact details of three potential academic referees
