SessionJob Postings
DescriptionArgonne National Laboratory invites applications from outstanding candidates for multiple postdoctoral research positions in applying artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning / deep learning (ML/DL) methods to scientific problems as well as for research in foundational aspects of AI.
Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
-AI-driven discovery and design
-Goal-driven design of materials, chemicals, proteins, and organisms
-AI for understanding complex systems and ecologies
-Self-driving robotic laboratories
-AI-based program synthesis and automated software generation
-AI-augmented control for accelerators and science facilities
-Intelligent sensing and reactive modeling
-Predictive crisis response and proactive decision support
-Rare-events analysis and understanding
-AI-driven manufacturing scale-up
-Foundational research in AI — mathematical, statistical, and information theoretic methods to advance AI for Science; development of new scalable AI methods and software frameworks.
Candidates will have the opportunity to work on their own research projects that are synergistic with other efforts at Argonne as well as be mentored and advised by Argonne scientists so as to form connections and collaboration opportunities with Argonne research efforts in this space. Candidates will have the opportunity to run on advanced supercomputing facilities at the Argonne Leadership Computing Facility (ALCF), including the upcoming Aurora exascale system, other GPU-based systems, as well as specialized AI hardware from vendors such as Cerebras, SambaNova, Graphcore, and Groq.
