Doctoral scholarship holder

**Job Description**
This doctoral position focuses on computational chemistry, specifically applying adaptive kinetic Monte Carlo simulations with machine learning potentials to model zeolite formation. The research aims to understand and steer the formation process of zeolites in hydrated silicate ionic liquids, providing guidelines that can be applied to a wide range of formation processes in fields like (geo/bio)chemistry, materials science, and medicine.

**Skills & Abilities**
• Can demonstrate excellent study results.
• Teaching competences are in line with the University of Antwerp’s educational vision.
• Research qualities are in line with the faculty and university research policies and the Department of Chemistry.
• Motivated, willing to show commitment for a doctoral project, and to apply for an external funded fellowship.
• Can communicate fluently in English and Dutch.
• Acts with attention to quality, integrity, creativity, and cooperation.
• Shows a pronounced interest in the research in the field of computational chemistry of Prof. Jelle Vekeman from the Research group MOSAIC.

**Qualifications**
Required Degree(s) in:
• Chemistry
• Bio-engineering (with specialization in chemistry)
• Applied sciences (engineering) (with specialization in chemistry)
• Civil engineering (with specialization in chemistry)
