The research group (http://qm.ims.ac.jp/?lang=en) let by Prof. Yutaka Shikano at Research Center of Integrative Molecular Systems, Institute for Molecular Science, which is located at Okazaki, Japan, announces the opening of the Ph.D candidate position from October 2014 and the visiting Ph.D/PostDoc position for three - twelve months.

The current project is seen in http://qm.ims.ac.jp/research_en . Of course, when the candidate wants to go on such direction, our group can support this projects. Recently, our group activities began to making an experimental proposal on quantum fundamental issues collaborated with experimental groups utilizing the technique of recent quantum technologies, establishing interplay between information and physics, utilizing a data-driven science to quantum information science/technology, and seeking for the relationship between quantum information and molecular science.

The Ph.D candidates should apply the entrance exam. of SOKEN-DAI (http://www.soken.ac.jp/en/). Before applying the entrance exam, you should send me the following requirements.
1) CV 2) Research interest 3) Academic scores 4) Letter of Recommendation 5) Suitable skill or technique if you have send to yshikano@ims.ac.jp

We are also looking for the visiting Ph.D candidates or Posdocs for several months stay in my group. Especially, the candidates are interested in the nonequilibrium Green function method to be applied to the realistic physical system.
1) CV 2) Research interest 3) Academic scores 4) Letter of Recommendation 5) Suitable skill or technique if you have send to yshikano@ims.ac.jp
