The Dynamic and Distributed Information Systems Group at the University of Zurich, Department of Informatics, investigates the foundations and technical means for building systems that dynamically adapt to changes in the environment or in their goals and/or require the collaboration of many human or computational actors to achieve their goals.

Your responsibilities

The Dynamic and Distributed Information Systems Group at the University of Zurich is looking for motivated applicants who are interested in conducting research at the intersection of computer science and AI/NLP. We are seeking applicants who have experience with large language models, large and multi-modal data processing, embedding spaces, and general applications of AI. Specifically, we are looking for a candidate interested in working on systems that help physicians diagnose patients with rare diseases.

Further engagement in projects related to news recommender systems and/or political deliberation is possible, should the candidate wish to.

Your profile

The position is available for candidates interested in these topics, who have a Ph.D. in Computer Science, AI, NLP, or a related discipline (or will be receiving it shortly) as well as a passion for discovering new things. Experience in the areas of AI, large language models, machine learning, semantic web technologies, and/or behavioral analyses such as running experiments with human subjects or surveys are considered a plus but are not strictly necessary. The position also includes some teaching support duties. Proficiency in German is not mandatory but recommended due to the topic of the position.
