Research Fellow/Theme Lead in Algorithms and Machine Learning for Functional Materials Design

Tenure: 5 years
Salary: Depending on qualifications and experience
Range: £33,518 - £38,883 pa (Grade 7) £39,992 - £50,618 pa (Grade 8)
Closing Date for applications: 16 March 2018
This particular post will suit to an ambitious scientist motivated to produce step-change advances in promoting revolutionary algorithmic ideas
in material design and/or machine learning techniques for harnessing exponential knowledge growth.
A 5-year Research Fellow position is available within the £10 M Centre for Functional Materials Design funded by the Leverhulme Trust.
The post will act as a theme leader in the area of algorithms and machine learning for functional materials design.
You should have a PhD in Computer Science, Mathematics, or other relevant discipline with a commitment to developing
collaborative research within or across the academic networks, external partners and stakeholder groups.
Knowledge of the cutting edge of algorithm design and/or machine learning techniques are essential.
Application of such techniques to chemical or materials problems would be an advantage, but we will also
consider applicants with pure Computer Science or Mathematics backgrounds who are keen to apply their knowledge to new problems.
