Research in the group spans a wide range of areas, from method development and fundamental materials science, to application of ab initio methods to the design materials in important areas of technology. We are looking for people with background in first principles methodology. The candidates need to have either a strong background in the theory of modern ab initio methods (DFT, DFT+U and extensions), or an education in materials science with experience in the use of ab initio methods. For an excellent candidate, a postdoc position may also be filled for experimental research in electrochemistry. In addition, for those that are interested, interaction with industry is also possible. Starting dates are negotiable and can be anytime between Dec 1, 2006 and May 1, 2007. Candidates should send a resume by email or postal mail with list of publications and names of references to: Professor Gerbrand Ceder Department of Materials Science and Engineering Massachusetts Institute of Technology 77 Massachusetts Avenue, Rm 13-5056 Cambridge MA –02139 USA gceder-at-mit.edu
