Posdoctoral position(s) opened at the Department of Mechanical Engineering and 
Materials Science, Duke University.
We are looking for highly qualified candidates from theoretical materials 
science and/or applied computational physics.

Type of appointment: postdoctoral associate (s)

The work to be done by the postdoc(s) will be related to the one (or more) of 
the following topics:

* phase stability of titanium superalloys
* high-throughput investigation of novel superconductors
* non proportionality of ceramics for nuclear detection
(Research supported by ONR, NSF and NSF-DNDO).

Candidates must have deep knowledge of thermodynamics of materials, solid state 
theory, kinetics of materials, surface science and ab initio calculations and 
programming (there is a lot of C/C++ coding involved on UNIX servers).

Further information on the research of our group as well as a publication list 
can be found in the group web page: http://materials.pratt.duke.edu

We consider applications until the positions are filled.
Candidates should send (in PDF)
1) short cover letter
2) curriculum vitae (including list of publications)
3) description of their research activity and interests (1-2 pages)
4) list of 2-3 names (emails/phones) of potential references

stefano.curtarolo-at-duke.edu

NOTES.
*Please send only PDF materials.
*Do not send pdf reprint of important papers, instead add the proper "DOI" or 
"ARXIV" links to the cover letter.
*Positions are for 1 year (renewable every year).
