Fixed Term positions exist for two Research Assistants/Associates working in the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics (DAMPT) and the Department of Physics at the University of Cambridge connected to the Accelerate Programme for Scientific Discovery.

The Accelerate Programme for Scientific Discovery (https://acceleratescience.github.io/) is a high-profile Cambridge University initiative promoting the use of machine learning to tackle major scientific challenges. Working across disciplines within the University, Accelerate is advancing research at the interface of AI and science, providing training in data science for science, and building a community of research and practice.

We are inviting applications for Research Assistants/Associates to join Accelerate. We are looking for candidates who are passionate about advancing science through machine learning and about helping other researchers do the same. Successful candidates will be responsible for developing research projects and contributing to the Programme’s community-building activities.

These posts will be based in either DAMTP or the Department of Physics, with candidates working with the following supervisors: – With Professor Carola-Bibiane Schönlieb (DAMTP), working on inverse problems and image analysis for scientific research challenges. – With Dr Sarah Teichmann FMedSci FRS (Physics), working on the application of machine learning methods to biological datasets.
