Los Alamos National Laboratory
“We seek a motivated candidate for a postdoctoral research position in applied statistics and machine learning. You will work on programs supporting fundamental, interdisciplinary research to advance machine learning methods for novel chemical compounds. In one program, you will work with a team that is developing methods to design, synthesize, and test novel explosive compounds with desirable properties. In a second program, you will work with a team seeking to predict molecular structure of chemical warfare agent materials from nuclear magnetic resonance spectra. Both programs will make use of first-principles physics simulations and state-of-the-art machine learning methods; interested candidates could potentially work on both programs or focus primarily on one of the two application areas.”
