The European Laboratory for Learning and Intelligent System (ELLIS) unit Amsterdam is delighted to announce three new ELLIS unit Amsterdam PhD positions. These projects will conduct research on artificial intelligence by machine learning with an international collaboration scheme by leveraging the ELLIS Society network, which the unit is part of. 

The ELLIS unit Amsterdam seeks to serve as a hub between the Amsterdam AI ecosystem spearheaded by the University of Amsterdam and other leading European AI ecosystems which expedites high-quality and collaborative research in machine learning or a related research area. Specifically, the ELLIS unit Amsterdam’s PhD programme aims to foster research collaboration through joint supervision: one supervisor from the University of Amsterdam, and the other one from a different university affiliated with the ELLIS Society. 

The call for PhD proposals was opened internally for the second time in February 2023 which targeted Faculty Members of the ELLIS unit Amsterdam. The received proposals were ranked by taking into consideration, among others, research excellence, the added value of the collaboration, and contribution to diversity and inclusion.
