We warmly welcome visiting scholars, including professor, postdocs, graduates, and undergraduate students, who are interested in collaborative research in AI-accelerated modeling, interface science, or clean energy materials. For example:

CSC-funded research program for PhD students, professors, and even postdocs;

IRIS@NUS funed by NUS for undergraduate students;

UROPS Special Term funed by NUS for undergraduate students;

...

Please send your CV and a brief statement of research interests to: xiaoyanli@nus.edu.sg​​

       Postdoctoral Fellows

We are seeking talented and driven postdoctoral researchers to contribute to cutting-edge research in AI-accelerated simulation and materials design for next-generation clean energy technologies. Ideal candidates should have expertise in one or more of the following areas:

  • Machine learning for materials discovery

  • Atomistic and coarse-grained simulations (e.g., MD, KMC)

  • Quantum mechanical calculations (e.g., DFT)

  • Interface chemistry and catalysisMultiscale modeling and reaction network analysis

 

Postdocs will have the opportunity to lead independent projects, mentor junior members, and collaborate with global interdisciplinary teams.​

 

Requirements:

  • PhD in Chemistry, Physics, Materials Science & Engineering, Chemical Engineering, or related disciplines

  • Strong publication record in peer-reviewed journals

  • Excellent written and oral communication skills in English​

 

Please send your cover letter and CV (including contact information for at least three referees) to:

Email: xiaoyanli@nus.edu.sg
