Postdoctoral Research Associate in Scientific Machine Learning

The Department of Mathematics at Purdue University invites applications for two Postdoctoral Research Associate positions in the research group of Professor Yue Yu. The roles are supported by DARPA-funded projects at the intersection of applied mathematics, scientific machine learning, and computational mechanics. Position 1 focuses on developing a mechanism-preserving digital twin for hemorrhagic shock, while Position 2 centers on neural-operator-based discovery of singular transformations for material fracture and microstructured materials. Both positions involve collaboration with partner institutions and offer annual compensation of $55,000–$65,000. A Ph.D. in applied/computational mathematics, engineering, computer science, physics, or a related field is required, along with strong programming skills and research experience.
