Two postdoc positions in computational catalysis are available at the KAUST
Catalysis Center, King Abdullah University of Science and Technology,
Saudi Arabia (http://www.kaust.edu.sa). The position is offered in the group
of Prof. Luigi Cavallo (http://www.molnac.unisa.it/). The candidates should
be highly motivated, able to independently follow and develop a research
project, willing to work in team and to interact strongly with experimentalists.
Priority will be given to candidates with expertise in:
1) Biocatalysis (simulation of bimolecules by classical methods coupled with quantum mechanics expertise to model catalysis)
2) Water splitting by solid materials (modeling of solid state structure and properties)
3) Heterogeneous catalysis
Qualifications:
PhD in computational chemistry or physics, or a related field
Expertise in static or dynamics simulation methods
Good programming skills
Good theoretical background
Good writing and communication skill in English
Appointment, salary and benefits:
The initial appointment is for one year renewable upon mutual agreement
up to three years. Salary is highly competitive, no tax paid to the
Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Benefits include free fully furnished housing,
free high standard medical and dental insurance. Campus life at the KAUST
is vibrant, with impressive recreational facilities that include a private
beach, marina and golf course.
Contacts:
Applications should include a CV and contact information of at least
two references and should be submitted by email to Prof. Luigi Cavallo
at luigi.cavallo.@.kaust.edu.sa
