The Center for Nanoscale Materials (CNM) at Argonne National Laboratory invites applications for a postdoctoral research position focused on developing AI/ML methods for autonomous materials discovery and synthesis.

We are seeking a creative and collaborative researcher who is excited by the opportunity to help shape the future of autonomous synthesis and self-driving laboratories. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys working at the intersection of data science, machine learning, materials research, and experiment, and who is motivated to translate computational advances into real laboratory workflows.

The position will focus on building the data resources, predictive models, and closed-loop decision frameworks needed to accelerate experimentation and advance next-generation autonomous laboratories. The broader goal is to enable AI-driven materials discovery, autonomous synthesis, and the development of high-quality, reusable datasets that support adaptive experi...
