Post-doctoral position in the Molecular Dynamics Group at the University of Groningen (the Netherlands)


A full-time post-doctoral research position is available with the Molecular Dynamics (MD) group of the Groningen Biomolecular Sciences and Biotechnology Institute (http://www.rug.nl/gbb) at the University of Groningen, the Netherlands, to commence asap.


*General information*

The research of the Molecular Dynamics group is focused on the understanding and prediction of macroscopic (experimentally observable) properties of biomolecular systems such as proteins, nucleic acids and lipid aggregates in terms of the interactions between atoms. In particular work concentrates on the development of tools (i.e. simulation software, atomic force fields and theoretical models) that can be used to understand the physico-chemical basis of interactions and dynamic processes within biomolecular systems. The group has a long history of pioneering simulations of biomolecular systems. It is associated with the development of two internationally recognized simulation packages GROningen MOlecular Simulation library (GROMOS) and the GROningen MAchine for Chemical Simulations (GROMACS). The group is embedded in the Groningen Biomolecular Sciences and Biotechnology Institute and a member of the Materials Science Center (MSC+). The University of Groningen registers 21,000 students and 5,000 employees. Situated in a city of 180,000 the university actively contributes to keeping the average age of the city’s inhabitants as low as 35. With this young age follow ample opportunities for cultural expression and vivid social life.


*Job description*

The post-doc position is for 1 year initially, with a possible extension up to three years depending on funds. Work will focus on the development of the GROMACS simulation package and the application of innovative simulation methodology to biomolecular systems. The person appointed will also play a major role in the development and management of the groups computer systems.


*Requirements*

Candidates must have a PhD degree in an appropriate discipline such as (bio)chemistry, (bio)physics or (bio)informatics with relevant experience in computer simulation, biophysics, and software development. Experience with GROMACS is desirable but not required.


*Conditions of employement*

The University of Groningen offers an appointment for an initial period of one year. The job is full-time(38 hours per week) with salary up to € 3.453,- gross per month (salary scale 10), depending on qualifications and work experience.


*Information*
