job

Postdoctoral positions are currently available at MIT's Department of Materials Science and Engineering for individuals with a strong background in materials simulations. Experience in atomistic methods (both classical potential or first principles) or mesoscale methods (e.g. phase field or dislocation dynamics) is preferred. Projects will focus on several different aspects of grain boundary and heterophase interface properties in metals. There are no citizenship requirements associated with these

The Computational Bioengineering Group in the School of EPS at Heriot-watt University, UK has three PhD studentships available.
