PhD Student in Electronic-Structure Machine Learning for Materials

The Paul Scherrer Institute PSI is the largest research institute for natural and engineering sciences within Switzerland. We perform cutting‑edge research in the fields of future technologies, energy and climate, health innovation and fundamentals of nature. By performing fundamental and applied research, we work on sustainable solutions for major challenges facing society, science and economy. PSI is committed to the training of future generations. Therefore, about one quarter of our staff are post‑docs, post‑graduates or apprentices. Altogether, PSI employs 2300 people.

This PhD project is part of the new Swiss project “Learning the electrons: Design, training and application of a general model of the electronic structure of matter”, which aims to develop next‑generation machine‑learning models for electronic‑structure theory. Building on recent advances in machine‑learned interatomic potentia...
