We are seeking a highly motivated Post-Doctoral Researcher to develop, implement, and advance the IDeA (Intelligent Design and Analysis) co-scientist project. The successful candidates will work on cutting-edge research at the intersection of artificial intelligence, agentic systems, and biological discovery. You will be part of an initiative aimed at creating AI-powered autonomous research assistants capable of hypothesis generation, experimental design, data analysis, and iterative learning in biological contexts. This project seeks to transform how computational and experimental biology research is conducted by developing intelligent systems that can function as collaborative partners in the scientific process. Our group is pioneering the development of (1) generative AI models and agentic architectures for scientific reasoning, (2) scalable tool integration frameworks that connect AI systems with bioinformatics pipelines, computational modeling tools, and experimental platforms, and (3) feedback loops that enable continuous learning from biological data. As part of this team, you will gain hands-on experience developing state-of-the-art AI systems while contributing to transformative applications in biological discovery and translational research. As a collaborative effort between Argonne and Oak Ridge National Laboratories, the candidate will have a unique opportunity to advance research in protein and enzyme engineering workflows on their respective leadership computing platforms.
