Position Summary:
Applications are invited for postdoctoral fellowships in the research group of Prof. Xiang Sun. The
selected individuals will play a leading role in developing and applying new computational methods for chemical dynamics in the condensed phase and simulation of ultrafast nonlinear spectroscopies.Specifically, photoinduced charge and energy transfer dynamics as well as structural dynamics of light_x0002_harvesting systems such as organic photovoltaic and luminescent molecules in liquid solutions and disordered condensed phases will be investigated. Classical molecular dynamics, mixed quantum_x0002_classical, semiclassical, and path integral approaches will be developed for such systems. Novel dynamical methods will be applied to ultrafast spectroscopies to help reveal important molecular information behind them.
Research at NYU Shanghai is supported by the NYU-ECNU Center for Computational Chemistry, a 
research institute operated jointly by NYU, NYU Shanghai, and East China Normal University
(ECNU). The center has a core group of faculty members who are conducting frontier research in 
various fields of computational chemistry, biology, and material sciences.
Qualifications:
1.Ph.D. in chemistry, physics, material science, computer science, or related fields (or must be completed before the start date of the appointment)
2.Experience with statistical mechanics, electronic structure theory, quantum dynamical methods, or theoretical ultrafast spectroscopy
3.Experience with coding in C/C++ and Python
4.Excellent communication skills (writing and speaking in English)
Application Process
 The two postdoc fellowship positions are available immediately and will remain open until filled.
The term is for one year initially with the possibility of extension to multiple years. The appointment start date for non-Chinese applicants is subject to immigration regulations. To be considered, 
applicants should prepare:
1.cover letter with a brief description of research accomplishments and interests
2.curriculum vitae with a list of publication
3.3 recommendation letters
