Calling PhDs / Postdocs for Visiting Fellowships in Machine Learning at Newcastle University

Newcastle University is seeking enthusiastic early career researchers working in Machine Learning for fully-funded visiting fellowships hosted in the team led by Prof Chris Oates.  We aim to award 3 fellowships in this initial call, and applicants may be from the UK or abroad.  Each fellowship is expected to last around 4-6 weeks, and should be carried out within one year of the award.  Permissible travel, visa and accommodation expenses will be reimbursed up to £4,000.

Examples of some relevant research areas include:  Bayesian computation, diffusion models, Gaussian processes, generalised Bayesian inference, kernel methods, Monte Carlo, numerical linear algebra, probabilistic numerics, reinforcement learning, Stein's method.

To apply for a visiting fellowship, please prepare at most one page of A4 outlining:

• the proposed research project;

• potential collaborators at Newcastle;

• any accessibility requirements;

• whether approval from the home institution / supervisor has been sought.

Informal enquiries and formal proposals should be sent to chris.oates@ncl.ac.uk, with the closing date of 31 July 2024.  Successful applicants will be notified by 7 August 2024. 

All visiting fellowships are financially supported by the Leverhulme Trust.
