A fully funded 3.5-year PhD position in the School of Computing and Information Systems at the University of Melbourne, focused on helping AI agents learn strategic knowledge from observed behaviour and transfer it to new tasks with different representations.

Institution: University of Melbourne, School of Computing and Information Systems
Field: Computer science; strategy extraction and generalisation for AI agents, machine learning, knowledge representation and reasoning, sequential decision-making
Level: PhD
Funding: Fully funded scholarship, 3.5 years. The scholarship is open to both domestic and international candidates.

Project: Building on prior work that used sequence alignment to extract strategies from agent behaviour and ontological reasoning to generalise them for learning policies in new tasks, the PhD will explore three directions: reducing the amount of hand-crafted modelling of source and target task domains; extracting richer strategies, such as conditional, hierarchical or temporally extended patterns; and finding strategically relevant similarities between contexts, including contexts with substantially different representations. The candidate will also study how transferred strategies can guide policy learning and when transfer improves learning efficiency and performance.

Coupling Ion Mobility-Mass Spectrometry and Ion Spectroscopy for Chirality Measurements

What the project is about:
The ERC-funded CHIRAMASS project aims to develop new analytical approaches for chirality measurements by coupling ion mobility-mass spectrometry (IM-MS) with gas-phase ion spectroscopy. The goal is to build innovative instrumentation and methodologies capable of probing the structure and handedness of molecular ions with unprecedented sensitivity and specificity.

You'll join the Biophysical and Bioanalytical Mass Spectrometry Laboratory under Prof. Valérie Gabelica. Research will involve development and implementation of instrumentation combining ion mobility spectrometry, mass spectrometry, laser-based spectroscopy, and advanced ion manipulation methods. Applications include structural characterization, chirality analysis, and fundamental studies of gas-phase ions relevant to chemistry, biology, and pharmaceutical sciences.

Profile they're looking for:
Highly motivated candidate with either:

• Master's degree (for PhD applicants), or

• PhD degree (for postdoc applicants)
  in Physics, Chemistry, Engineering, or related disciplines.

Useful skills: ion optics, simulations, vacuum systems, optics and lasers, instrument control, electronics, mass spectrometry instrumentation, and gas-phase ion chemistry or spectroscopy. English: B2 level or higher.

Why join us?

• You enjoy building things that do not yet exist - not a routine application project, but developing new instrumentation at the intersection of IM, MS, and spectroscopy

• You are scientifically curious and collaborative - at the interface of analytical chemistry, physical chemistry, spectroscopy, and instrumentation

• You want to make a visible contribution - team development as scientists, communicators, and future leaders

Logistics:
