Offer Description
[Background of the recruitment and description of the project]
* Background of the recruitment and description of the project
The International Institute for Carbon-Neutral Energy Research (I2CNER) is a member Center of the “WPI Academy”
founded by MEXT’s Research Promotion Bureau. I2CNER’s mission is to contribute to the creation of a sustainable
and environmentally friendly society by conducting fundamental research for the advancement of low carbon
emission and cost-effective energy systems, and improvement of energy efficiency. Please refer to the link below column for more detailed information regarding I2CNER.
In November 2022, I2CNER is launching the “Center for Energy Systems Design," referred to as “the Center”, under
the “Carbon Neutral Energy Alliance” in collaboration with six research institutes* to conduct research that
contributes to the realization of carbon neutrality. The Center consists of six research teams: "Photo Conversion",
"Electric Conversion", "Materials Conversion", "Materials/Transport", "Data Science", and "Energy Analysis". The
Center’s goal is "energy system design, high-speed conversion of energy, and materials conversion through using
data science" toward the realization of carbon neutrality. Please refer to the following link for more detailed information regarding CESD.
*Six collaborative institutes:
Hokkaido University, Institute for Catalysis (ICAT)
Tohoku University, Advanced Institute for Materials Research (AIMR)
Tokyo Institute of Technology, Tokyo Tech Academy of Energy and Informatics (ISE)
Kumamoto University, Institute of Industrial Nanomaterials (IINa)
RIKEN Center for Sustainable Resource Science (CSRS)
National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS), Research and Services Division of Materials Data and Integrated
System (MaDIS)

[Work content and job description]
CESD/I2CNER is recruiting a postdoctoral research associate with expertise in data science, specifically in the use of machine learning and/or deep learning techniques to improve the properties of materials. The selected researcher will collaborate with Assistant Professor Adroit T.N. Fajar in the Data Science team.
We are seeking candidates with sufficient knowledge of computer programming languages (Python, R, etc.), familiarity with standard machine learning libraries (e.g., scikit-learn, Pytorch, Keras, TensorFlow, etc.), experience in building machine learning models for chemistry or material science, and have an interest in working in an interdisciplinary environment.
In particular, candidates with knowledge in any of the following areas, but not limited to, are preferred:
(1) Machine learning in chemistry or material science.
(2) Bayesian optimization to design efficient experiments.
(3) Automatic data extraction from digital sources.
Furthermore, we strongly encourage postdoctoral research fellows to engage in proactive research collaboration with faculty members, researchers from all three research Thrusts, and the six collaborative institutes at I2CNER. We welcome qualified candidates who possess the capability to collaborate not only with CESD but also on the relevant research at I2CNER.
