The AISSAI Center opens a call for postdoctoral fellowships to fund interdisciplinary projects at the interface between Artificial Intelligence (AI) and sciences, and whose implementation requires collaboration between research teams in laboratories from at least two CNRS institutes. AI is to be understood here in the broadest sense, covering automatic learning methods, data processing and preparation, etc.
Five projects will be funded in 2024/2025 for a period of 18 to 24 months.
CNRS institutes will sollicit potential project leaders and then collect and submit the applications.
Eligibility criteria
Application procedure
Only applications submitted by a deputy scientific director or scientific advisors of the AISSAI steering committee will be considered. The application (in English) must include:
- The scientific project (maximum 3 pages), including the project’s objectives, the state of the art, a description of the applicants’ previous work in AI and science, a justification of the interdisciplinary nature of AI and science, and a project timetable.
- The names and resumess of the two project leaders, giving details of their respective laboratories and research disciplines.
- The project may indicate whether the post-doc candidate has already been identified, in which case a resume must be attached. However, the identification of a candidate prior to submission of the project is not compulsory and will not be taken into account in the examination of the application.
- Applications should be sent to the deputy scientific director or scientific advisors representing CNRS institutes at the AISSAI Center steering board (see attached call text in French).
Schedule
- Maximum application deadline: September 12, 2024
- Evaluation of shortlisted applications by the AISSAI Center Steering Committee – and advice from the ISAB.
- Publication of results: September 30, 2024
