The appointment will be on UCL Grade 7.
The successful candidate will work on lattice-Boltzmann codes for high-performance computing applications including those in the biomedical domain. The post-holder will work on scientific applications of HemeLB, a flexible open source lattice-Boltzmann code for the simulation of human vasculature. The post-holder will investigate parallel in time methods, as well as verification, validation and uncertainty quantification. They will also facilitate uptake of the software within the wider computational science community. The post is funded by the European Commission and is available immediately, for a period of 24 months initially.
A Ph.D. degree in physics, computer science, computer engineering, applied mathematics or chemistry, with experience in the lattice-Boltzmann method, is an essential requirement. Experience in large-scale high performance computing is also essential, alongside a proven ability to programme quickly and effectively in state-of-the-art high-performance computing environments; familiarity with GPU programming in such contexts is desirable. Some experience in developing and exploiting state-of-the-art methods in any one or more of multiscale/multiphysics methods, medical imaging, visualisation and computational steering would be advantageous.
Please note, appointment at Grade 7 (salary £36,770 to £44,388 per annum) is dependent upon having been awarded a PhD; if this is not the case, appointment will be at Research Assistant Grade 6B (salary £32,217 to £33,958 per annum).
