Postdoctoral Position in Systems Engineering: Design of an Intelligent Material

A postdoctoral position is available at Georgia Tech, supported by a complex
systems grant from the McDonnell Foundation:

http://www.jsmf.org/grants/2011020/

Applicants are sought who bring expertise in areas including systems
engineering, molecular simulation, and chemistry, and who are interested in
working in a highly interdisciplinary environment.  

The postdoc will work closely with Professor Martha Grover in the School of
Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering:  http://www.chbe.gatech.edu/grover, and
also with David Lynn at Emory University: 
http://www.chemistry.emory.edu/faculty/lynn/  The postdoc will also interact
broadly within the NSF/NASA Center for Chemical Evolution:  
http://www.centerforchemicalevolution.com/  

The project will focus on system-level design of a peptide reaction network
that can learn based on its history.  Activities will include molecular
simulation, model reduction, and optimization.  Expertise and experimental
data generated within the team will be used for model building and model
validation.  Those interested should send a CV to Martha Grover at
[log in to unmask]  The position is available immediately.
