Research Associate Position in Soft Matter Theory & Computation

The Center for Functional Nanomaterials (CFN) explores the unique properties of materials and processes at the nanoscale. The CFN is a user-oriented research center whose mission is to be an open facility for the nanoscience research community and advance the science of nanomaterials that address the nation's energy challenges. The CFN is currently soliciting applications for a Postdoctoral Research Associate position in the Theory and Computation Group, with the focus at Computational Soft Condensed Matter.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities:

The successful candidate will work in a young and very dynamic field of soft/bio nanomaterials, which is one of the strategic directions of the Center for Functional Nanomaterials (CFN) at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The position will provide an exceptional opportunity for the research in this field, thanks to collaborations with leading experimental and theoretical groups, both locally within CFN and outside. Position

Requirements Required Knowledge, Skills and Abilities: Requires a Ph.D. in physics, chemistry, chemical engineering or materials science. Solid background in computational/theoretical soft condensed matter, strong research record and proficiency in Molecular Dynamics and/or Monte Carlo are expected.

Preferred Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities: Experience with high performance/parallel computing is a plus.
