<pre>  Postdoc Position at Quantum Chemistry Research Institute, Kyoto, Japan 
Subject: Method-algorithm development for solving the Schroedinger equation 
Purpose: Develop accurate predictive quantum chemistry that is different
 from the conventional one. 
Explanation: Schroedinger eq. provides a governing principle of chemistry, 
 biology, and physics of matter. So, if we can solve the Schroedinger eq. 
 accurately, quantum chemistry would become a central science of these 
 fields, giving confident theoretical predictions towards experiments. 
 Though this was simply a dream for over 80 years, it has been realized 
 recently by the efforts of this laboratory. The underlying mathematics 
 is very simple. We want to extend our methodology to more realistic 
 systems and we want to avoid too much empiricism from chemistry.

 This is an entirely new approach in quantum chemistry and different from 
 the conventional ones. We want to formulate accurately predictive quantum 
 science by developing powerful algorithms and codes for computers.
