Description

Professors Arezoo Ardekani and Severin T. Schneebeli at Purdue University are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral candidate to work on an exciting joint project focused on the machine-learning guided design of advanced biologic therapies. The position will be joint between the Ardekani and Schneebeli laboratories in the Departments of Industrial & Molecular Pharmaceutics and Mechanical Engineering. The Ardekani and Schneebeli research groups are both focused on advancing the formulation and delivery of biologics innovative new drug modalities such as peptide, protein, and RNA drugs with combined experimental and computational techniques. In this joint project, these lines of research will be further advanced by integrating machine learning into the discovery/development pipeline. More information can be found on the current group websites:
