Cambridge Centre for Research Assistant/Associate in Machine Learning (Fixed Term)
Department of Engineering, Central Cambridge
We are seeking a highly creative and motivated Postdoctoral Research Assistant/Associate to join the Machine Learning Group in the Department of Engineering, University of Cambridge, UK. This position will contribute to the research programme of the recently founded "AI Hub in Generative Models", a research consortium funded by EPSRC.
The goal of the programme is to do research in the area of deep generative models, e.g., diffusion, energy based, normalizing flow or transformer-based models. With a focus on the particular domain of molecules. The project will contribute to accelerate the drug discovery process, leading to more economic and effective drugs that can significantly improve the health and lifestyle of millions. The resulting methods are also expected to have an impact in materials science, e.g, by leading to more effective batteries.
The post holder will join the Machine Learning Group at the Department of Engineering, working with Prof. José Miguel Hernández Lobato and Prof. Mark Girolami and other members of the Cambridge Machine Learning Group (http://mlg.eng.cam.ac.uk/). The project offers also collaborations with other participants of the "AI Hub in Generative Models" (UCL , Oxford, Imperial, Edinburgh, Cardiff, Manchester and Surrey) and with its industrial partners.
