Postdoc In Modelling Of Solid-State NMR Experiments

A three-year postdoc position is available in modelling of solid-state NMR experiments from 1 October 2026 (or soon thereafter) in the Danish Center for Ultrahigh-Field NMR Spectroscopy at the Department of Chemistry, Aarhus University in the group of Prof. Thomas Vosegaard. The place of work is Gustav Wieds Vej 14, 8000 Aarhus C.

Project goal and tasks: We combine state-of-the-art instrumentation and experiments with modelling of these experiments. As part of this, we have developed new algorithms and a completely new web-based platform – EasyNMR – for performing such modelling/simulations. With this position, we seek to strengthen the platform by embedding/developing additional tools for data processing and analysis. The starting point for the developments will be our EasyNMR platform (see easynmr.pastis.dk). Current application areas range include materials/catalysis, lipidomics, and NMR of food systems, but we seek to be domain agnostic in our analyses.

Your profile: We are looking for a candidate with strong scientific expertise and creativity to join our team. It is expected that the successful candidate will take a central role in developing the integrated web-platform for analysis of solid-state NMR experiments as well as having sufficient knowledge of solid-state NMR to be able to take part in running solid-state NMR experiments.

Applicant qualifications: The applicant should:

• hold a PhD degree in NMR spectroscopy or similar
• demonstrate experience in solid-state NMR spectroscopy
• be familiar with programming, preferably dynamic web-programming
• demonstrate proven scientific excellence
• be able to work both independently and collaboratively while contributing creatively in refining project directions
• have good collegial, oral and written communication skills.

For further information: Applicants seeking further information are invited to contact: Prof. Thomas Vosegaard Department of Chemistry, Aarhus University Phone: +45 6020 2639 Email: tv@chem.au.dk

Deadline: All applications must be received no later than 15 August 2026.

Application procedure: Shortlisting is used. This means that after the deadline for applications – and with the assistance from the assessment committee chairman, and the appointment committee if necessary, – the head of department selects the candidates to be evaluated. All applicants will be notified whether or not their applications have been sent to an expert assessment committee for evaluation. The selected applicants will be informed about the composition of the committee, and each applicant is given the opportunity to comment on the part of the assessment that concerns him/her self.
