PhD Position Computational Chemistry​/Machine Learning

Position Overview

Applications are invited for a PhD position in theoretical and computational chemistry/biophysics in the group of Markus Meuwly in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Basel, Switzerland. Candidates should have a degree in Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, or related fields.

The main theme of our research is the development and application of machine learning-based energy functions (force fields) for atomistic biomolecular and chemical simulations to characterize and understand reaction mechanisms, the spectroscopy and the nuclear dynamics in molecular systems.

Interested and talented candidates (programming skills required) should send a letter of intent and a CV by e‑mail to m.meuwly, and arrange for two letters of recommendation.
