<br>
We are seeking <span><span class="">two</span></span> PDRAs (up to 36 months each) to support our ongoing
work in atmospheric chemical mechanism development. As part of the NERC
funded “Mechanisms for Atmospheric chemistry: GeneratioN, Interpretation
and FidelitY (MAGNIFY)” project we are looking for chemically,
numerically and computationally talented individuals to work with us on
developing the next generation of benchmark atmospheric chemical
mechanisms (Master Chemical Mechanism (MCMv4.0) <a href="https://outlook-legacy.leeds.ac.uk/owa/redir.aspx?C=bd4hhadPpEuHOnUK_13PjT61-1ypWtJIT5ied_CDpLZylkxOCHUGWTYZ08KoFUXWZo6wxBXAdE8.&URL=http%3a%2f%2fmcm.leeds.ac.uk%2fMCM" target="_blank">http://mcm.leeds.ac.uk/MCM</a>)
through automated mechanism generation and the development of a
database infrastructure to host, explore and exploit this and other
mechanisms.<br>
<br>
The project will exploit a range of unconventional approaches
(cheminfomatics, expert systems, graph theory and statistics) and thus
would be suitable for candidates with a wide range of backgrounds
(chemistry, physics, maths, computer science, engineering etc…).<br>
