Position description: Two postdoctoral positions are now open for ERC Starting Grant with focus on flexoelectric nanostructures and metamaterials. Applicants considering their interests, skills and backgrounds will be placed on different tasks of the project including: machine learning for metamaterials design combined with flexoelectricity; nanoscale experiments and characterization; atomistic and continuum modelling of nanomaterials, nanostructures and nano energy harvesters; sensitivity analysis and uncertainty quantification; probabilistic optimization, validation and verification.
Opportunities: The positions will be based on the contract salary system in Germany (TVL).
Applications: Applicants interested in the positions may contact Prof. Dr. Xiaoying Zhuang, through email: zhuang [at] iop.uni-hannover.de (zhuang[at]iop[dot]uni-hannover[dot]de) xiaoying.zhuang [at] gmail.com (xiaoying[dot]zhuang[at]gmail[dot]com). The application should include a CV and publicaiton list.
