Still another month or so to apply to work with me: predicting the crystals and their properties on Titan!
I've got a post-doctoral research position available at Curtin University (Western Australia) starting 2026.
The project involves computational prediction of crystal structures, their growth, and their properties for organic minerals on Titan (moon of Saturn).

Our paper is out on what we affectionately called the Capernator-4000 during development. The device is fully steam powered and can be applied in most branches of Natural Philosophy and Physik. link.springer.com/chapter/10.1.... First paper on using this in real workflows is about to be submitted.

I went tonight to see my PhD student Emma Brass’s fantastic AI art exhibit in Liverpool. It features a 4x4 m screen with a giant robot arm (see video below) and the whole thing is really fantastic!
