Subject: PhD, PostDoc, Assistant Professor positions in computational photochemistry/photophysics at Bologna Univeristy

Category: Job

From: Marco Garavelli

Date: 24-Nov-2011 10:17

Message:

<meta content="text/html; charset=utf-8" http-equiv="content-type" />Several positions for PhD, PostDoc, Assistant Professor are now open in the framework of the ERC Advanced Grant 2011 titled:

"Structure and dynamics of biomolecules by two-dimensional ultraviolet spectroscopy".

The work will be held at the Department of Chemistry "G. Ciamican" (www.ciam.unibo.it) of Bologna University (www.unibo.it) under the supervision of Prof. Marco Garavelli (www.unibo.it/docenti/marco.garavelli).

This is a 5 years project in computational photochemistry/photophysic/spectroscopy, starting 1st March 2012, and involving the modelling of photoinduced events in DNA and polipeptides/proteins (of biological/bio-medical interest) and the simulation of the corresponding bi-dimensional UV spectroscopy for diagnostic purposes. Both development and applications of computational tools/methods for delivering an experimentally reliable analysis will be the target of these studies.

The project is part of a more general experimental/theoretical effort covered by the ERC Adv Grant, involving a tight cooperation with the transient spectroscopy group of Prof. Giulio Cerullo, at the Politecnico di Milano, that will perform the experimental analysis. It will also involve collaborations with other theoretical and experimental groups (e.g., Irvine University, California, USA).

PhD positions (3 years, 20 k€/year gross salary) will formally start 1/1/2013, but the selections will be finalized by September/October 2012. A background in computational chemistry and/or photochemistry/photophysics and/or spectroscopy is welcome. Interested candidates are already invited to send their CV and a presentation letter to arrange an interview.

PostDoctoral positions (1 year renewable with a salary, from 25 k€/year, proportional to the experience) are now open, first ones starting 1st March 2012. The ideal candidates are computational photochemists/photophysicists, with a PhD (or equivalent experience) and a strong background in excited state computations & related methods (applications and/or method developments). However, candidates with a more biological-oriented profile (preferentially in photoreceptors), and a strong experience with simulations, will be also considered. Interested candidates are invited to send their CV, publications list and a presentation letter to arrange an interview.

An Assistant Professor position (3+2 years position, from 50 k€/year gross salary) is now open up. The successful candidate will be an independent research team leader, with at least 5 years research experience and a strong knowledge and background in computational photochemistry/photophysic/spectroscopy, excited state computations, (non-adiabatic) simulations and related methods. Autonomy and independence in decision making and research is required. Interested candidates are invited to send their CV, publications list and a presentation letter to arrange an interview.

Interested candidates should send their own CVs and presentation letters to: marco.garavelli-at-unibo.it

For more information, please contact Prof. Marco Garavelli at: marco.garavelli-at-unibo.it
