🧪 Postdoctoral Opportunity in Theoretical Chemistry

Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral Researcher position in theoretical chemistry at the Institute of Physical Chemistry, Polish Academy of Sciences (IChF) in Warsaw, Poland, as part of the MSCA-Cofund BS4S (“Basic Sciences for Society needs”) programme.

🔬 Project scope
BS4S aims to foster a broader scientific mindset and societal relevance in postdoctoral research. Candidates are encouraged to propose original research rooted in chemistry, biology or physics with a clear societal impact. Projects must be supported by two senior mentors — one from IChF and one ERC/EIC grant holder from abroad.

👨‍🏫 Proposed Supervisors:
• Adam Kubas (IChF, theory)
• Lars Jeuken (Leiden University, experiment)

💡 Desired proposal topic:
The Ideal candidate will develop a research agenda to study interfacial electron transfer between the electrode's surface and redox-active proteins using quantum chemical methods. The project should foresee close collaboration between theory and experiment, building on the experience of the hosting group (Kubas, theory, incl. calculations of electron transfer parameters) and the mentor's group (Jeuken, experiment, hybrid protein-inorganic systems studied with electrochemical methods). For such a project, we propose a secondment to the Turbomole company in Jena, Germany, under the supervision of M. Sierka (potential methods development).

💶 Funding & Benefits
• ~€2500 net/month
• +€200 family allowance/month
• +€1400/month research & training budget
• Up to 36 months duration

🗓 Proposal submission: September 1 – December 31, 2025 (to be confirmed)
🌐 Project website coming soon!
