Job Type: Full-Time.
A Research Associate position in Computational Supramolecular Materials Discovery is available within the group of Prof. org ) at the Department of Chemistry, Imperial College London. You will work on the application of computational chemistry and artificial intelligence techniques for the discovery of new functional supramolecular materials built from organic building blocks. This is part of a broader EPSRC-funded project, and you will work within a team of other Research Associates and PhD students across several universities. Your role within this team will be an expertise in modelling materials built from organic building blocks, including both structure and property prediction and you will have an interest in the use of artificial intelligence techniques, including machine learning, in this area. A vital focus of the research will be the development of an approach that will not only predict optimal materials, but also materials that can be successfully synthesised in the laboratory.
This position will involve both the development and application of software written in Python and the use of existing computational chemistry software. There will be an opportunity to assist in the supervision of PhD candidates and undergraduate students working on these topics. Development of approaches for promising materials that have the potential to be synthesised in the laboratory of experimental collaborators
Development and application of software written in Python and the use of existing computational chemistry software
Develop and validate software for the successful prediction of the assembly and structure of a range of supramolecular materials, including porous molecular materials
Explore how material performance in a range of applications can be predicted with, where possible, simple descriptors
