A postdoc position is available in the group of Prof. Mingjie Liu in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Florida, starting August 2022 or later. Areas of interest: high-throughput simulations, machine learning, materials informatics, computational chemistry, and materials science. Candidates with any experience in DFT simulations, using ASE packages and databases are highly desired. The information about the group can be found: liu.chem.ufl.edu
Dr. Liu received her Ph.D. from Rice University with Prof. Boris Yakobson. Before she joins the University of Florida, she did her postdocs at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Brookhaven National Laboratory. Dr. Liu’s research experience covers computational study from carbon materials, single-atom catalysts, 2D materials, bio-inspired molecular catalysts, and ion-selective membranes. She published over 30 papers in JACS, Science Advance, Angew Chem, ACS Catalysis, ACS Nano, et al. with the citation of over 4000. Her group devotes to developing the next-generation AI-driven materials design platform.
The University of Florida is ranked as the 5th best public school and 28th best university in the United States (US. News 2022). The University of Florida is making artificial intelligence the centerpiece of a major, long-term initiative that is combining world-class research infrastructure, cutting-edge research, and a transformational approach to curriculum. We have the most powerful university-owned supercomputer with NVIDIA GPUs. The University of Florida is located in the beautiful college town-Gainesville, Florida. About two hours’ driving time from Jacksonville or Orlando, three hours from Tampa, and six hours from either Atlanta or Miami.
