A senior postdoc position (2 years) is available in the group of Professor Anders Krogh. The group focuses on the development of deep generative models, quantum computing, and applications to medical data. We are seeking a postdoc to do research on:

  • Machine learning and quantum computing applied to protein-ligand binding and other biological or medical applications together with our theoretical and experimental collaborators in math and physics.
  • Development of deep generative neural networks for biomedical applications.

We seek a highly motivated person that can contribute to the theoretical and applied work in the group. The group is part of the "Center for Basic Machine Learning Research in Life Science" (mlls.dk) as well as the Center "Quantum for Life" (quantumforlife.ku.dk), and it is expected that you work with other people in the centers. You may also have teaching and other duties.

You are expected to:

  • Have a PhD and MSc in bioinformatics, computational biology or a similar field and preferably have a few years of postdoc experience.
  • Have solid experience in machine learning and generative models.
  • Be an expert in molecular modelling and dynamics of proteins.
  • Have several years of programming experience in Python and Pytorch.
  • Have a good understanding of math and statistics.
  • Be responsible, independent, and self-motivated.

The position is open from 1 December 2024 or as soon as possible thereafter.

The University wishes our staff to reflect the diversity of society and thus welcomes applications from all qualified candidates regardless of personal background.
