Easter Seals Jobs

We are on the cusp of a new frontier in which machine learning and artificial intelligence are transforming scientific discovery. We seek to drive major advances in sciences with machine learning, with a focus on ‘fifth paradigm (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/blog/ai4science-to-empower-the-fifth-paradigm-of-scientific-discovery/) ’ scenarios. Through these advances, we aim to empower real-world impact on some of the most pressing problems facing society including climate change, green energy, sustainable materials, and the discovery of new drugs.

AI4Science is a new global team in Microsoft Research focusing on the opportunity to transform scientific modelling and discovery through large-scale deep learning. We aim to advance this frontier and to drive real-world impact at a global scale. The AI4Science team encompasses multiple disciplines across machine learning, engineering, and the natural sciences and spans several geographical sites in Europe, Asia, and the US.

The field of machine learning has evolved significantly in recent years, with many of the most impactful contributions coming from larger teams of people collaborating closely on well-defined and challenging goals. Furthermore, AI4Science in particular requires a combination of machine learning, engineering, and natural sciences, which again emphasizes the importance of collaboration and teamwork.

We are seeking a highly motivated and experienced researcher with expertise in machine learning.
