About this role
Full-Time: 35 hours per week
Open-Ended (permanent)
The opportunity:
We are seeking current and emerging leading researchers in the field. The successful candidate will have a PhD (or be close to completing one), a strong research agenda, and the enthusiasm and ability to undertake original research, teach courses, and supervise student projects.
We seek candidates with research interests in the development of cutting-edge Artificial Intelligence methods and models, particularly in the joint space of perception (e.g., computer vision) and action (e.g., interactive decision-making systems). We are interested in candidates motivated to establish and expand the principles underlying such methods and models in the context of high-impact application domains (e.g., robotics, health, environment, society, etc.).
The candidate's research focus may align with the following, non-exhaustive, list of topics (in no particular order):
Continual, open-ended, self-improving AI Agentic AI, world models, and generative models Embodied perception and action Learning from interaction and reinforcement Decision-making under uncertainty Long-duration autonomy
Candidates should have a strong research track record. They should also demonstrate interest and ability to teach undergraduate (UG) and master's (MSc) level courses, and to supervise projects for UG, MSc, and PhD in areas related to their research.
