The IT University of Copenhagen invites highly motivated individuals to apply for a postdoc position starting on 1 September 2024 or soon thereafter. 

This project will create an ambitious resource for research on transfer learning, in which pre-training data is held constant, and evaluation takes into account how much similar data was observed in training, and in what ways it was similar. This resource will encourage the development of more efficient and robust approaches, since it will not be possible to improve benchmark scores by simply training on more data.

The candidate will be a member of the national Pioneer Centre for Artificial Intelligence, and of the NLPnorth research group at the IT University’s Computer Science Department. 

The main supervisor for the project is Associate Professor Anna Rogers. The project will be performed in collaboration with Tal Linzen, Associate Professor at New York University.

The Novo Nordisk Foundation Centre for Biosustainability (DTU Biosustain) along with the Department of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science (DTU Compute) and Department of Biotechnology and Biomedicine (DTU Bioengineering) at the Technical University of Denmark are opening a Ph.D. position.
If your expertise lies in machine and deep learning, and you are looking to make a real-world sustainability impact through biotechnology, this is your chance to contribute. Your efforts will play a vital role in driving the sustainability performance of bio-based solutions for natural products, microbial foods, and sustainable chemicals by applying in-silico and human-in-the-loop strategies for modeling. 

We are actively seeking motivated Ph.D. candidates with skills in machine learning, deep learning, programming, and big data, with an interest biotechnology—a skill set in high demand in industry and academia. To bridge this gap, we offer a biosustainability-focused Ph.D. project supervised by Line Katrine Harder Clemmensen (DTU Compute) with co-supervision from Sumesh Sukumara (DTU Biosustain) and Marjan Mansourvar (DTU Bioengineering).
