About the Role
We are looking for a motivated postdoctoral research associate (PDRA) to join the research group of Professor Cédric John. You will be a key member of the John Lab, contributing to our development and the success of our mission, as well as collaborating with key members of TOTAL OneTech, which will include regular visits to Pau (France) to present results.
The aim of the research project is to develop a series of surrogate models focusing notably on Physics-Informed Neural Networks to emulate the process of sediment deposition, diagenesis, and potentially fracturing, working closely with partners in TOTAL OneTech, and members of Professor John's research group.
The role is funded for up to 24 months in the first instance, with an expected start by March 2025.
About You
You will have a PhD and track record in either computer science with specialization in relevant AI technologies for surrogate modeling, or in Earth or Environmental Science with a strong track record in developing surrogate models. You also will have a good track record of publishing your research in the peer-reviewed literature, and where relevant, of writing or helping to write research grants.
How to Apply
Please submit an application via the Queen Mary Portal and upload a copy of your CV. Please do not upload copies of research papers.
