Due to the large number of posts recently, there is currently a delay of several weeks between posts being submitted and the corresponding emails being distributed to all users. Please bear with us while we try to improve this. In the meantime – and until this notice is removed – it would assist us considerably if you could submit only important and/or urgent posts and thus help to reduce the size of the mail queue. Under no circumstances should you resend posts multiple times when you find the emails are not distributed immediately.
In light of the Russian military offensive in Ukraine, we request that announcements relating to events, jobs and other activities associated with institutions supported by the Russian and Belarusian states are not posted to the Psi-k forum.
Postdoc and PhD opportunity on artificial-intell ... (No replies)
Back to Job listings...
We are looking for brilliant computational-materials-science researchers with a strong background in artificial intelligence for a collaborative research project between the Leibniz Institute for Crystal Growth (IKZ Berlin) and the NOMAD Laboratory at the Fritz Haber Institute and the Humboldt University in Berlin. The ambitious aim of the project is to identify novel memristive materials, by combining synthesis, theory, and artificial-intelligence-driven workflows.
The research moves from a recent breakthrough at IKZ on a novel possible class of memristors [1], and the AI advances in compressed-sensing-based symbolic regression and subgroup discovery from the NOMAD group [2-4].
Both a 3-year postdoc and a PhD position are available. Together with an outstanding materials-science research curriculum, strong scientific-programming skills and experience in data mining are required.
The interested candidates should apply to Dr. Luca Ghiringhelli ([email protected]) providing a motivation letter, scientific CV, including 3 contact persons for a reference letter, and an essay of the programming skills (e.g., a project on github)
