About the Role
Engage in groundbreaking research as a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics, focusing on AI reasoning in physics.
The joint three-year postdoctoral opportunity includes one year at the University of Wisconsin-Madison followed by two years at Perimeter Institute. Candidates should have a background in theoretical physics and a keen interest in AI reasoning applications. While publications in AI for physics add value, they are not a mandatory requirement. The selected candidate will work closely with both physicists and computer scientists, fostering interdisciplinary research collaboration.
Key Responsibilities:
• Investigate agentic approaches and scaling methods
• Use symbolic verification in research endeavors
• Develop methods integrating LLMs with theoretical physics
• Establish and benchmark training data initiatives
• Fine-tune models with reinforcemen...
