A postdoc position is available in the Data-Intensive Systems group, Department of Computer Science ( https://cs.au.dk ) at Aarhus University. The position is part of the project “Effective, efficient and robust clustering models for molecular dynamics simulations” funded by Villum Fonden Denmark ( https://cs.au.dk/news-events/pages/villum-synergy/ ). The project brings together researchers from computer science and chemistry to create new cluster models for protein movement at the molecular level.
Successful applicants must demonstrate an ability to publish their work in top-ranked database or data mining research outlets. Key topics include clustering models, efficient data mining algorithms, and data management. The applicant should have a strong interest in engaging in interdisciplinary research with the Biomodelling group in the Department of Chemistry. Experience in computational chemistry / biology / physics is considered a plus, but not a requirement.
The responsibilities include research on the above topics in collaboration with other staff and project partners, along with modest teaching and service tasks.
The department employs some 130 members of staff and has about 700 students. The department is strong in both theoretical and experimental research, and it is recognized internationally for its contribution within theory as well as the practice of computing. To encourage a multi-disciplinary attitude to research, no firm dividing lines are drawn between the various subjects, and there is lively interaction among subjects.
Aarhus University ( https://international.au.dk ) has approx. 40,000 students. Among over 17,000 universities world-wide, it is ranked in the top 100 by several influential rankings. Aarhus is the second-largest city in Denmark and is situated by the sea in East Jutland. Aarhus is a "young" city due to its disproportionally large population of young inhabitants.
The position is for the period from July 15, 2023 to September 30, 2023, but may be further extended based on mutual agreement.
Place of work is IT-parken, Åbogade 34, 8200 Aarhus N.
Applicants should send a letter of interest, a CV including list of publications, copies of two relevant publications, the names of at least two references, and the preferred starting date to Professor Ira Assent (at ira@cs.au.dk). Applications will be considered as they are received and until the position is filled.
Application procedure
Shortlisting is used. This means that after the deadline for applications – and with the assistance from the assessment committee chairman, and the appointment committee if necessary, – the head of department selects the candidates to be evaluated. All applicants will be notified whether or not their applications have been sent to an expert assessment committee for evaluation. The selected applicants will be informed about the composition of the committee, and each applicant is given the opportunity to comment on the part of the assessment that concerns him/her self. Once the recruitment process is completed a final letter of rejection is sent to the deselected applicants.
Letter of reference
If you want a referee to upload a letter of reference on your behalf, please state the referee’s contact information when you submit your application. We strongly recommend that you make an agreement with the person in question before you enter the referee’s contact information, and that you ensure that the referee has enough time to write the letter of reference before the application deadline. Unfortunately, it is not possible to ensure that letters of reference received after the application deadline will be taken into consideration.
