PhD position in Physics-Inspired AI for Drug Design

Your position

A fully funded PhD position is available in the Computational Pharmacy group at the University of Basel. The successful candidate will contribute to ongoing research on the development of novel physics-guided AI algorithms for drug design, integrating physics-based modeling with state-of-the-art deep learning methods. The project will focus on creating a next-generation docking framework that explicitly incorporates protein–ligand dynamics.

You will be responsible for :

• Designing and implementing innovative deep neural network models.
• Integrating physical principles and molecular modeling knowledge into learning architectures.
• Collaborating with experimental research groups, enabling real-world validation and application of newly developed algorithms.
