Descrizione del lavoro

Postdoctoral Researcher – Theory and Molecular Simulation of Fluids in Nanoporous Materials (Francia)

The Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL), situated in Grenoble, France, is Europe's leading research facility for scientific research using neutrons.

• Develop theoretical and computational approaches based on statistical mechanics to study fluids confined in nanoporous materials
• Implement and perform molecular simulations to investigate the impact of electrical stimulation (oscillating electrostatic fields) on adsorption and transport phenomena
• Collaborate with experimental partners (e.g. Lydéric Bocquet’s group in Paris, Grenoble-based groups) to compare and validate theoretical predictions
• Contribute to joint research initiatives with ILL scientists and external users

Qualifications / Experience:

• You hold a PhD in physics, physical chemistry, or materials science (or equivalent)
• Strong background in statistical mechanics and molecular simulation methods
• Knowledge of fluid thermodynamics and dynamics at interfaces or in confinement
• Experience in collaborating within interdisciplinary research teams (theory/experiment)
• Good communication skills in written and spoken English
