Carla Molteni

King's College London is offering a PhD studentship in the Department of Physics, focusing on 'Synergistic Quantum and Classical Computing for the Design of Photoswitches and Biosensors.' The project is supervised by Professor Carla Molteni and Martina Stella, and is part of the #KingsQuantum Doctoral Training Centre (DTC). This research opportunity aims to advance the computational design of molecular systems, leveraging both quantum and classical computing approaches to develop innovative photoswitches and biosensors. The interdisciplinary nature of the project spans physics, computer science, and chemistry, and is ideal for students interested in cutting-edge computational methods and their application to real-world molecular challenges. Applicants should have a strong academic background in physics, computer science, or a related discipline, with experience or interest in quantum and classical computing. The project is suitable for candidates with a passion for computational research and molecular design. The studentship is based at King's College London, a leading UK institution, and offers the opportunity to work within a vibrant research community, including collaboration with Algorithmiq Ltd and the Thomas Young Centre. Funding details, including stipend and tuition coverage, are not specified in the announcement.
