The Quantum for Life Center is looking for a PhD student interested in taking part in the development for quantum algorithms for quantum chemical systems. The PhD student would be employed at the Department of Mathematics at the University of Copenhagen supervised by Professor Matthias Christandl with co-supervision by Professor Markus Reiher from ETH Zurich in Switzerland. The project would involve the development of new quantum algorithms as well as the theoretical and numerical analysis on concrete example molecules. Potential candidates are expected to have a background and knowledge in one or more of the following areas: theoretical chemistry, scientific computing, theoretical physics, quantum information and computation. For more information on the Quantum for Life Center, please see https://quantumforlife.ku.dk/

If interested please apply through https://www.math.ku.dk/english/about/jobs/phd-stipends-in-mathematics-se... (deadline 1st April 2025) and send in parallel your application material to Center Administrator Lise Steen Nielsen (lsn@math.ku.dk).

There are also opportunities for postdocs on the above mentioned topic. If interested, please get in touch with Lise Steen Nielsen (lsn@math.ku.dk).
