The role
This is an exciting opportunity for a skilled, motivated and talented postdoctoral researcher to join the UKRI National AI Research Hub in AI for Collective Intelligence (AI4CI) to conduct research on healthcare technologies embedded in complex care ecosystems. Opportunities to work on different healthcare ecosystem projects being pursued by the hub will be available, but the main focus will be on supporting people with diabetes to choose their self-care and shared-care technology ecosystem via co-design/participatory design. The position requires expertise in HCI, co-design and human-AI interaction, and would benefit from experience working within the context of diabetes. The AI4CI Hub is a collaboration between a consortium of seven partner universities (Bath, Bristol, Cardiff, Exeter, Glasgow, UCL and Ulster). The Hub’s ambition is to pursue cutting edge research at the intersection between the fields of applied AI and Collective Intelligence across five application domains (Pandemic Resilience, Smart cities, Financial Stability, Health Ecosystems and Environmental Intelligence) and two cross-cutting themes (Human-Centred Design and Infrastructure and Governance). Research within each application domain and cross-cutting theme will be pursued by a team of academics, postdocs and PhDs working with academic and non-academic stakeholder partners from relevant sectors, such as the NHS.
