Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position in theoretical
biophysics/computational chemistry in the group of Markus Meuwly in
the Department of Chemistry at the University of Basel,
Switzerland. The appointment is within the newly established National
Competence Center of Research (NCCR) on Molecular and Ultrafast
Science and Technology. The earliest starting date is October 2010 and
the initial appointment is for one year with the possibility to renew
for a second year.

Candidates should have a Ph.D. in Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, or
related fields. A strong background in computational/theoretical
chemistry/physics (e.g., statistical mechanics, computer simulation,
electronic structure theory) and programming skills are essential. The
main theme of our research is to develop and apply state-of-the-art
computational tools for understanding reaction mechanisms,
intermolecular interactions and the nuclear dynamics in complex
systems. The systems of primary interest are biological
macromolecules.  For more information see
http://www.chemie.unibas.ch/~meuwly/

Interested candidates should send a letter of intent and a C.V. (by
e-mail to m.meuwly"at"unibas.ch), and arrange for at least two letters
of recommendation sent to the same mail address.
