Stephen T. Lam

The Lam Research Group at the University of Massachusetts Lowell is recruiting for two openings : a PhD candidate and a postdoctoral researcher . The positions sit at the intersection of materials science , artificial intelligence , spectroscopy , and clean energy technologies . Research topics include AI-enabled XAFS analysis for monitoring molten salt chemistry and corrosion in fusion energy systems, experimental validation of generative AI methods for inverse materials design, and the development of new molten salt synthesis and characterization capabilities. The group emphasizes cutting-edge problems in fusion energy and advanced materials , with opportunities to collaborate with universities and national laboratories, publish in leading journals, and present at conferences. Eligibility/fit: The post does not list formal requirements such as degree background, GPA, or language scores. It does indicate that applicants should have research interest in the listed areas and be prepared to contribute to interdisciplinary work spanning materials, AI, and spectroscopy. Funding: The announcement does not specify stipend, salary, tuition, or other financial support details. How to apply: Email [email protected] with a CV and a brief description of your research interests. Indicate whether you are interested in the PhD or postdoctoral role. No deadline is provided in the post.
