> Dear QE users,
>
> The PIIM Laboratory, Marseille, France, seeks candidates for a  
> permanent position in the area of atomic-scale modeling of  
> condensed matter systems. Applicants will take part to a national  
> contest aimed at selecting CNRS (_http://www.cnrs.fr <http:// 
> www.cnrs.fr/>_) permanent researchers upon evaluation operated by a  
> national committee.
>
> The selection process will take place in two different steps  
> (January 2013 and May/June 2013). This selection will be based on  
> past accomplishments, validity of the proposed  research project  
> crafted with the Laboratory, and an oral presentation.
>
> Prior to the first step, the candidate should contact us and send  
> us a CV. Then he/she will be invite in our Lab to craft with us a  
> suitable project to be defended before the CNRS committee. The  
> deadline for the project/candidacy submission to the CNRS is  
> January 13th.
>
> Our group works in the domain of gas-surface interactions, chemical  
> reactivity and spectroscopic modeling related to condensed matter.  
> The applications we are dealing with are about Fusion Science and  
> the plasma-surface interactions which will take place in the future  
> ITER Tokamak. The materials of interest are tungsten, beryllium and  
> their oxides interacting with hydrogen. Our activities are strongly  
> committed to European programs and supported by the EFDA and other  
> French funding agencies . Another part of our activities are also  
> related to the chemical reactivity in the interstellar medium.
>
> These activities are developed using DFT as implemented in its PW  
> formalisms (mostly the Quantum Espresso Package). We are looking  
> for a candidate with a good knowledge in DFT, development skills  
> especially for the implementation of new functionals or new  
> capability to better handle the phenomenon we are dealing with -  
> gas-surface interaction. We would also be interested in someone  
> with a good knowledge of heavy metal modeling, however not heavier  
> than W.
> Also of secondary interest would be skills dynamic and excited  
> states computation .
>
> If interested, thank you to contact,
