First-principles simulation of heterogeneous catalytic reactions mediated by supported metallic nano-aggregates.

A post-doctoral position is available in the Applied Chemistry and Physical Chemistry R&D Division at Institut Fran�ais du P�trole (IFP Rueil-Malmaison, Paris suburb) The position is now open, and funded for 18 months from starting date.

The candidate should hold a PhD defended less than one year ago, and be skilled in DFT based calculations applied to solids and surfaces. This theoretical work is part of a new project funded by the French National Research Agency (ANR) within the framework of the High Performance Computing and Simulation Program. The other partners are academic laboratories with first class expertise in electronic structure calculation and applied mathematics. The project will involve advanced transition state search methods. The rather sophisticated systems considered will aim at realistic representations of industrial catalysts in usage in petroleum refining and petrochemistry. 

Motivated candidates are invited to send their CV including a list of publications and a brief description of research experience to:

Professor Herv� Toulhoat
Deputy Scientific Director 
Director of Doctoral Studies
Institut Fran�ais du P�trole
