[gmx-users] PhD position at MEMPHYS: Centre for Biomembrane Physics, Denmark

[himanshu khandelia]

Dear All,

A PhD scholarship in computer simulations of ion transport in biology is
available at the Department of Physics, Chemistry and Pharmacy (FKF) at the
University of Southern Denmark (www.sdu.dk) starting as soon as possible.
The position is associated with the MEMPHYS-Center for Biomembrane Physics.
Outstanding candidates comfortable in the Linux computing environment, and
from backgrounds in physical chemistry, engineering, computer science,
physics and similar areas are invited to apply. Candidates should have a
strong physics/chemistry background. Knowledge of computer simulations is
desired, but can be acquired during the job. Knowledge of computer
programming is desired, preferably in C or C++.

The candidate will be working on an interdisciplinary project involving
molecular biophysics, structural biology and computer simulations. The
project involves using multi-scale simulations to investigate the
fundamental molecular basis of proton ion transport across biological
membranes through proteins. Strong collaboration with experimental groups
is expected and the successful candidate will work in a highly
collaborative atmosphere at MEMPHYS, working together with theorists and
experimental scientists. The project is co-advised by Associate Professors
Himanshu Khandelia and Ilia Solov’yov. The successful candidate will have
access to large-scale resources ABACUS 2.0:  www.deic.sdu.dk

Applications and queries can be sent to Dr. Khandelia (hkhandel at sdu.dk). In
the subject of your application, please use the keyword: PROTOPORT. Please
