Postdoctoral researcher
Project
PREP0003547
Overview
The work will entail:
- Designing and training physics-informed machine learning (PIML) models for the prediction of
physical and chemical properties using data from experiments and computation constrained by
physics requirements. - Implementing algorithms to assess the performance of PIML models.
- Assessing uncertainty in the predictions of PIML models.
- Developing systems for multiscale modeling of atomic layer deposition processes.
- Developing software to implement the goals stated above (most likely in Python).
- Disseminating results through posters/seminars and international meetings and meeting
seminars. - Ensuring that all results, findings, data, software, etc. are correctly archived and transmitted
through appropriate channels.

Qualifications
- A Ph.D degree in Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics, Computer Science, Data Science, or a related
field. - Significant course work in one or more of chemistry, physics, mathematics, statistics and/or
computer science. - Familiarity with one or more chemical process modeling packages (e.g. Cantera, CHEMKIN).
- Familiarity with one or more AI/ML software packages (e.g. Tensorflow or Pytorch).
- Ability to program in a modern computational language (e.g. Python).
- Strong oral and written communication skills.
Research Proposal
Key responsibilities will include but are not limited to:
- Algorithm development, implementation, and analysis
- Analyze heterogeneous data sources.
- Presenting results at internal meetings, and occasional meetings with external stakeholders.
- Ensuring that results, protocols, software, and documentation have been archived or otherwise
transmitted to the larger organization.
