There will be a fully funded PhD opening for 2024 January or August intake in the Computational Soft Matter group in Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in Singapore.

Our group focuses on theoretical soft matter physics using numerical techniques, e.g. Monte Carlo, molecular dynamics, Brownian dynamics simulations, etc., and theoretical techniques, e.g. (dynamic) mean field theories and linear response theories, etc. The projects we are working on now span from the programable assembly of DNA coated building blocks to the non-equilibrium dynamic assembly of active colloids and various phase transitions in 2D systems and self-assembly of biomimetic systems.  For details, please contact email: r.ni@ntu.edu.sg or check the website: https://www3.ntu.edu.sg/home/r.ni.

The project for the new PhD student will be likely on something new, and we hope the PhD student will be able to open a new direction in addition to the present focus of the group. Possible directions could be simulation and/or theory for non-equilibrium phase transitions or deep learning neural network assisted sampling of disordered systems or something else mutually agreed. Therefore, we are looking for highly motivated candidates, and we will offer internationally highly competitive remuneration and a multidisciplinary research environment.

To apply, please send your CV and a short description of yourself to r.ni@ntu.edu.sg. The candidate applying for the PhD position should have a bachelor/master degree in a related field by the beginning of the PhD study. The related fields would be physics, chemistry, materials, chemical engineering, (computational) mathematics, etc.
