The Department of Chemistry at Texas A&M University at Qatar (TAMUQ) 
once again invites applications for postdoctoral research positions 
in the field of computational chemistry, specifically in the area of
quantum modeling of reactions.  These postdoctoral researchers will join 
Professor Brothers' group at TAMUQ in Doha, Qatar, in a 12-month, 
full-time position.  These positions are avialable immediately.
In cooperation with the Qatar Foundation, TAMUQ occupies a new 
state-of-the-art 595,000 square foot building. The TAMUQ chemistry program
is fully equipped with a broad array of modern  instrumentation and 
excellent supercomputing resources. 

The positions are part of a collaboration between Professor Michael 
Hall at Texas A&M University and Professor Brothers at TAMUQ to develop 
new DFT-based methods to model reaction barriers, and to apply these 
methods to nickel dithiolenes.  A brief overview of the project can 
be found at:

The successful candidates will be a computational chemists or physicists 
with experience in density functional theory and applying modern 
electronic structure methods, who are capable of independent work and 
possess strong work ethic. The candidate will be expected to be team
players, conform to safety guidelines, and will be required to extensively
publish and present results at conferences.

Minimum Qualifications:
The successful candidate will have earned a Ph.D. in computational 
chemistry or a related field, and be prepared to join an international
team of highly motivated scientists. Strong English communication and 
writing skills are necessary.

Salary:
The compensation package is particularly generous and commensurate 
with experience and qualifications; beyond salary, the benefits package
includes housing, utilities, health insurance, tax support and schooling 
for qualified dependents.

Applicants should email their resume/CV (with references' email addresses)
and a statement of interest addressed to Dr. Brothers
(ed.brothers(~)qatar.tamu.edu).
