Zurich, Schweiz Department of Chemistry Vollzeit

_Department of Chemistry_
**Postdoc position in Theoretical Chemistry**
**80 %**:A postdoc position is available in the Luber group at the Department of Chemistry at University of Zurich (Switzerland).
Our group focuses on forefront computational methods at the interface of chemistry, biology, physics, and materials science. In particular dynamic approaches (using, for instance, state-of-the-art DFT-molecular dynamics) for an accurate realistic description of compounds have been in focus of our research.

**Your responsibilities**:
You will join our team in order to strengthen our efforts for forefront nonadiabatic dynamics/ electron dynamics methods with emphasis on the condensed phase. In particular, we have focused on forefront nonadabatic dynamics using variational DFT methods and derivation of novel spectroscopic approaches using real time propagation / Ehrenfest dynamics (see publication list), providing exciting new insight into the role of environment in excited state dynamics and helping in designing new (ultrafast) experiments.
The projects may be carried out in close collaboration with experimental groups. We are, for instance, involved in the "Solar light to chemical energy conversion” priority program.

**Your profile**:
**What we offer**:
We offer a 1-year contract with possible extension(s), a competitive salary as well as a vibrant, inspiring environment in a brand-new building with cutting-edge resources and research, access to world-leading supercomputers, and high-profile interdisciplinary collaborations. Moreover, the postdoc will be involved in supervision of (PhD) student(s), and financial support for visit of conferences etc. are also available.

**Place of work**:
University of Zurich, Winterthurerstrasse 190, 8057 Zürich, Switzerland

**Start of employment**:
The employment start date is by agreement.
The pdf can also include a one-page statement discussing one or two publications of the group with respect to what the applicant finds particularly interesting and what could be possible future improvements of the research described in the publication(s).
