Semantic Scholar Research at the Allen Institute for AI (AI2) is an interdisciplinary research team focused on AI, HCI, ML, NLP, accessibility, and computational social science in support of Semantic Scholar’s mission of accelerating science. Semantic Scholar is an open platform that helps millions of scholars discover, understand, and synthesize scholarly papers, powered by a large-scale literature graph with 200M+ papers. Our research impacts the Semantic Scholar platform and the research community more broadly, and we regularly publish in high-profile conferences and journals in NLP (e.g., ACL, EMNLP), HCI (e.g., CHI, UIST, CSCW), ML (e.g., NeurIPS, ICLR), IR (e.g., SIGIR), Accessibility (ASSETS), and other areas.
We are welcoming applications for multiple research positions. We strongly encourage applications from women, underrepresented, and minoritized candidates, individuals with disabilities, and covered veterans. We are particularly interested in candidates with a demonstrated commitment to the diverse values of our team at AI2. Current openings include:
- Research Intern (3 mo.; typically pursuing a PhD) https://boards.greenhouse.io/thealleninstitute/jobs/2172007 (Deadline: Oct 15)
- Pre-doctoral Researcher (1+ yr; interested in pursuing a PhD) https://boards.greenhouse.io/thealleninstitute/jobs/5358681 (Deadline: Oct 31)
Interns and predoctoral researchers lead a high-impact research project and are mentored by scientists on Semantic Scholar Research. We encourage open collaboration with other researchers at AI2 and external institutions, and have close ties with researchers at the University of Washington, only 1.5 miles away. Projects often result in publication, release of open datasets and software, and integration with the Semantic Scholar platform.
