Offer Description

Institute of Inorganic Chemistry SAS is looking for a PhD candidate to make a whole 4 years study.

Nowadays quantum-chemical programs became indispensable tools in different areas in chemistry. Different options for analyzing the obtained results and explaining the observed trends make them particularly attractive for chemists. However, the development of interpretation tools at the relativistic level necessary for treating heavy-element compounds remains a challenging topic. Supervisor: Dr. Olga Malkin.
