Research Associate in Computational Skyrmionics for Neuromorphic Computing
Lab/Company: The University of Manchester
The University seeks to appoint a research associate with expertise in computational techniques within the Department of Computer Science. The role involves working on Skyrmionics for Neuromorphic Computing, including an interdisciplinary project between Manchester, CNRS, Thales, AUTh, and Eurida.
The ideal candidate will have computational skills such as micromagnetic and atomistic simulations and a strong interest in circuit-level and neural network-level simulations. The research will focus on emerging magnetic nanotechnologies to enable brain-inspired computing hardware.
Specific responsibilities include developing skyrmionics-based neuromorphic components, such as nanosynaptic devices, considering realistic operating conditions. Further details and the person specification criteria are available in the Further Particulars document linked below.
The candidate will join the NeuroΣky team and be hosted by the Nano Engineering and Spintronic Technologies (NEST) group, a vibrant interdisciplinary community working on spintronics, magnetic data storage, nanotechnology applications, and numerical modelling. The NEST group is an active member of the National Graphene Institute (NGI) and the Royce Institute for advanced materials.
