Responsibilities:
- Establish capabilities in Biomolecular MD Simulation and phase behavior of bio membrane.
- Setting up models (script + automation).
- Need to work on multiscale modeling of interfaces of different nature, in biology and materials science.
- Partner with internal collaborators in designing experiments for technology screening and MOA elucidation using computational methods.
- Transient phase behavior mapping across multiple dimensions in phase space.
- The focus will be developing models to understand from an atomistic level interfaces structural and dynamical phase behavior.
Qualifications & Requirements:
- Ph.D. in Computational Chemistry, Biophysics, Chemistry (Organic/Physical/ Analytical), Physics, Bioinformatics or related fields (Chemical Engineering, Materials Science).
- At least having two years Postdoc experience.
- The applicant must have the Up-to-date knowledge and hands on experience on molecular dynamics simulations methods such as Atomistic, Coarse Grain Molecular Dynamics(CGMD), & Dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) and computational chemistry (Quantum, QM/MM etc.).
- The applicant should have a strong background in Bio-membrane (Lipid Bilayer) MD simulations involved in fundamental biological processes or Gel Network Simulation.
- The applicant should have a strong background and hands on experience on Polymers/Natural Polymer MD simulations (Atomistic and CGMD).
- Development and implementation of algorithms and software for molecular simulations and programming skills (Perl, Python, C++, etc.) are desirable.
- Previous experience in combining simulations with Analytical experiments and Finite Element Modeling are a plus.
- Excellent communication and analytical skills are required. Ability to work independently and in an interdisciplinary collaborative environment is expected.
