The Institute for Chemical Reaction Design and Discovery (ICReDD), Hokkaido University, as a global research center based on the “World Premier International Research Center Initiative (WPI) , supported by Japan's Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT),” constructs an international research environment which gathers world-leading researchers and establishes a research environment that integrates computational, information and experimental sciences, in order to establish a new academic field “Chemical Reaction Design and Discovery”, to provide substantial knowledge on chemical reactions that efficiently develop chemical reactions and materials for the future necessity, and to sustainably cultivate human resources engaged in the field of “Chemical Reaction Design and Discovery”.
[Work content and job description]
[Job Description]
(Just after hiring) In October 2019, Prof. Satoshi Maeda (Director of Institute for Chemical Reaction Design and Discovery (WPI-ICReDD), Hokkaido University) launched a new research project entitled “Artificial Intelligence in Chemical Reaction Design and Discovery" under a commitment by JST ERATO. In the project, we will create new methodology that predicts innovative chemical reactions by combining technologies of automated reaction path search by Artificial Force Induced Reaction (AFIR) and combinatorial optimization.
The successful candidate will join the group of automated synthesis (Yuuya Nagata, Specially Appointed Associate Professor in ICReDD) to develop the innovative chemical reactions through the combination of theoretical calculations and automated robots specially designed for organic synthesis.
In addition, the successful candidate can be allowed to conduct other research activities with up to 20% of the whole research work.
(Scope of change) No change expected.
