(02) Postdoctoral Fellowship Position
Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: Postdoctoral Scholar in Applied Physics
The physics of two-dimensional (2D) materials, and especially structures with a relative twist between successive layers, has attracted much attention in recent years. Guiding experimental searches through theoretical models for interesting applications of these systems is crucial, because of the very large parameter space involved. The theoretical tools commonly employed in modeling of these systems are density functional theory (DFT) and effective hamiltonians built through wannierization of Bloch states. A Postdoctoral scholar is sought to make leading contributions to this field, by developing theoretical models of twisted 2D homo-layer and hetero-layer structures using the tools mentioned. A key goal is to explore the physics of these systems, including correlated electron behavior, topological states, superconductivity, and related emergent behavior. The work involves close collaboration with experimental groups in several projects. The candidate will join a team of other postdoctoral scholars and graduate students working collaboratively on the prediction of multi-layer structures with interesting electronic, optical and magnetic behavior.

(03) Postdoctoral Fellowship Position
Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: Postdoctoral Fellow in the Study of Historical Psychology in Latin Texts
We seek a postdoctoral fellow with research experience in computational approaches to language and literature to work on a cross-institutional project to develop methods for the study of historical psychology in Latin texts. This is a one-year full-time position beginning in September 2022 and potentially renewable for one additional year. Besides regular meetings with the project PI, Joe Henrich (Harvard University, Culture, Cognition, and Coevolution Lab) and co-PI, Jonathan Schulz (George Mason University), the position will entail close collaboration with the Quantitative Criticism Lab, co-directed by Joseph Dexter (Harvard University). The aim of the project is to develop computational methods for the study of diachronic changes in psychology based on current research in the social sciences and developments in computational text analysis for Latin and other pre-modern languages. The work forms part of a larger multi-institutional project, funded by the Templeton Foundation, entitled “Religion, Family Structure and the Origins of Individual Freedom and Economic Prosperity.” The successful applicant will join a cross-disciplinary, highly collaborative team of humanists, social scientists, and data scientists; this position will contribute to the team through research competence in historical languages and some experience in natural language processing, corpus linguistics, computational literary studies, digital humanities, or a related area. Experience in Latin language and literature is highly desirable; also desired but optional areas of experience include one or more of the following: cultural analytics, cultural evolution, history of ideas, lexicography. The fellow will have no teaching responsibilities.
Deadline : Open until Filled
(04) Postdoctoral Fellowship Position
Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: Postdoctoral Research Fellow
We have an immediate opening for a postdoctoral fellow in social epidemiology. We are looking for an exceptional and highly motivated postdoctoral fellow to collaborate with Dr. Natalie Slopen and Dr. Andrea Roberts on a research project using the Nurses’ Health Study 3 cohort. The successful candidate will conduct innovative research that addresses questions of childhood exposures and viral infections across the life course. The project has relevance to long-term health outcomes, pregnancy conditions, and offspring health, and therefore is well suited to candidates with an interest in life course epidemiology.
Deadline : Open until Filled
(05) Postdoctoral Fellowship Position
Postdoc Fellowship Position summary/title: Postdoctoral Fellow
The project aims at combining existing methods to interrogate genomic regions and transcripts about the existence of conserved RNA structure with AI methods that could take advantage of information in the known structural RNAs and to apply it to the identification of novel ones. Our group has developed two computational tools, termed R‐scape and CaCoFold, which use genomic signals of conservation, variation, and covariation, gathered from millennia of evolutionary history to identify novel structured RNAs in any genome. This proposal aims to take those methods further in several directions by developing new methodologies to determine the fold of a structural RNA, and by developing new computational methods to identify phylogenetically restricted structural RNAs.
Deadline : Open until Filled
