You will join the group of Professor Alessandro Troisi based in the Materials Innovation Factory to work on a project supported by a recent ERC Advanced Grant on the Theory of Materials for Organic Bioelectronics.
The overall goal of our research is to understand a class of organic materials able to transport ionic and electronic charge. Such materials provide an ideal interface between human-built devices (where signals are carried by electrons) and biological systems (where signals are carried by ions). The proposed research will cover theoretical models at many scales including electron dynamics, soft-matter physics, materials-biomolecules interaction and device physics exploiting the contributions from a multidisciplinary team of theoreticians.
You should have expertise in at least one of the following areas (i) Non-adiabatic chemical dynamics, (ii) Physics of charge transport in the solid state, (iii) QM/MM methods, (iv) Atomistic classical simulations of macromolecules (v) Biophysics. You can write computer codes to solve some of the daily research problems and have experience with high performance computing.
You should have a PhD in Chemistry, Physics or Materials Science with a proven research track record and solid background enabling the study of completely new problems.
The appointment will be initially for 24 months with the possibility of extension.
The University has the right to close the vacancy early if it is deemed that there have been enough applications received
