Applications of AI in drug design

We have used machine learning to search databases to propose new drug candidates from a machine learning model from test data. We seek to extend both the scope and applications of this technology to new areas. This project would suit someone with prior knowledge of python or someone willing to learn. We are currently active in Anti-ageing research and there will be the opportunity to liaise with our biological colleagues over testing of compounds and with our colleagues in the Quantum Biology Centre at the University.

Applicants are expected to hold a first or upper-second class degree in a relevant discipline (or equivalent overseas qualification), or a lower second plus a good Masters degree (distinction normally required).

UK candidates only, only UK fees covered.
