Five three-year postdoc positions, one each at the Universities of Bristol, Edinburgh, Lancaster, Manchester and Warwick are now available to support the core research activities of the Prob AI (Probabilistic AI) Hub. The Prob AI Hub is an £8.5 million multi-institution initiative funded by the EPSRC to progress research on the Mathematical and Computational Foundations of AI.

We are looking to put together a team of postdocs with broad expertise spanning Bayesian statistics, computational statistics, inverse problems, numerical analysis, probability, statistical machine learning, stochastic analysis and uncertainty quantification. Information about the open positions and the specific expertise required at each location can be found here:

https://www.probai.uk/pdra-positions

Applications for all five posts should be made via the same online portal hosted by the University of Lancaster:

https://hr-jobs.lancs.ac.uk/Vacancy.aspx?ref=0719-24

Applicants may apply for multiple positions at the same time if they have the appropriate background. They should make it clear in their application which posts they wish to be considered for and how they meet the criteria in each case. Note that a position will also be available at Cambridge (the sixth Hub partner), but the application process for that position will be different.

Candidates who are considering making an application should direct queries to the following AI Hub leads:

Anthony Lee (antho...@bristol.ac.uk), Bristol
Aretha Teckentrup (A.Teck...@ed.ac.uk), Edinburgh
Paul Fearnhead (p.fea...@lancaster.ac.uk), Lancaster
Catherine Powell (Catherin...@manchester.ac.uk), Manchester
Gareth Roberts (Gareth.O...@warwick.ac.uk), Warwick

The deadline for applications is 2nd September, with interviews anticipated to take place on 13th September.
