Vacancies in the School of Mathematics
Lecturer in Statistics or Machine Learning
The School of Mathematics is seeking to appoint a Lecturer (analogous to Assistant Professor) in Statistics or Machine Learning, to be interpreted as broadly including Statistics, Data Science, statistical Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence, or closely related disciplines. The post-holder will be responsible for developing their own internationally leading, independent research programme and supervising postdoctoral researchers and postgraduate students. They will take on teaching duties, both undergraduate and postgraduate, within the School of Mathematics, as required.

Research Associate / Senior Research Associate in Information Theory for Distributed Artificial Intelligence (INFORMED-AI)
Applications are invited for up to three Post-Doctoral Research Associates to work on information theory, decentralised decision-making, and engineering applications. The positions are funded by the EPSRC AI Hub on Information Theory for Distributed Artificial Intelligence (INFORMED-AI), a joint initiative between the Universities of Bristol, Cambridge and Durham, and Imperial College, London. Based in Bristol, this is an exciting opportunity to conduct ambitious research at the interface of information theory, statistical machine learning and applications as part of an interdisciplinary team.
