Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position in the area 
of computation biophysics and nanobiotechnology. The successful candidate 
will study micromechanics of molecular motors, transport of biomolecules 
through synthetic and biological nanopores, or molecular mechanisms 
of DNA replication machinery. All projects are being carried out in close 
collaboration with experiment. Candidates with expertise in modeling 
biological macromolecules, molecular dynamics simulations, continuum 
electrostatics calculations, or numerical hydrodynamics are especially 
encouraged to apply. Preferred qualifications: strong background in soft 
matter physics, biophysics, or computational chemistry. Prior 
experience in high-performance computing would be an asset.

This position is available immediately. Further information about 
the position and the research group may be obtained by contacting 
Professor Aksimentiev (see below).

The University of Illinois is an affirmative action/equal opportunity 
employer. Applications from members of groups historically underrepresented 
in physics are welcomed.
