About the Role
Candidates who are considering making an application are strongly encouraged to discuss the program in greater detail by contacting:
Professor Gareth Roberts at [email protected]
Paul Jenkins at [email protected]

We invite applications for a 26-month Research Fellow to join the Prob_AI Hub (https://www.probai.uk) and based in the Statistics Department of University of Warwick. (https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/statistics/).
The vision of the Prob_AI hub is to develop a world-leading, diverse and UK-wide research pro-gramme in probabilistic AI. The hub will develop the next generation of mathematically rigorous, scalable and uncertainty-aware AI algorithms. This will be achieved through: bringing together world-leading researchers across Applied Mathematics, Computer Science, Probability and Statistics, who engage with a range of non- academic partners; transforming the people pipeline; and producing a culture change within the mathematical sciences more broadly, so that cross-disciplinary mathematics research in AI is the norm.
This £8.5M programme is funded by EPSRC and brings together research groups from the Universities of Lancaster, Bristol, Cambridge, Edinburgh, Manchester and Warwick. Interaction between the research groups at the six universities will be strongly encouraged and resourced, with broad research projects to involve substantial cross-institutional collaborations.
