Role details
The Department of Chemistry at New York University (NYU) invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position at the rank of Assistant Professor in the area of AI-Enabled Chemistry , broadly defined. Particular attention will be given to candidates whose research develops and applies innovative approaches in machine learning/artificial intelligence to accelerate discovery in one or more areas of molecular sciences. Successful candidates must have a Ph.D. in chemistry or related field and demonstrate the potential to conduct pioneering research and teach effectively at the undergraduate and graduate levels.
The Department of Chemistry is continuing a significant growth plan, which includes the recent creation of the Simons Center for Computational Physical Chemistry and the Center for Chemical Biology Research; recently hired senior and junior faculty members add to the university's expansions in AI and quantum science and the creation of the Courant Institute School of Mathematics, Computing, and Data Science. New faculty would also benefit from, and participate in, significant interdisciplinary programs within the Washington Square campus, as well as with NYU’s Tandon School of Engineering, Langone School of Medicine, and NYU’s Shanghai and Abu Dhabi campuses.
