Applications open: Turing Fellow Scheme 2023
14 Aug 2023
Applications are now open for The Alan Turing Institute’s new Turing Fellow scheme
Turing Fellowships are aimed at established researchers with the potential to be the next generation of world leaders. They have made important contributions to their research area, are likely leading a programme of research, and have significant postdoctoral research experience.
Each Turing Fellow call will focus on priority areas of strategic importance for the Institute which fellows will support and contribute to during their fellowship. Applicants for this call must have knowledge and expertise in one of the following areas:
- 1. Science and Innovation: Environment and Sustainability
- 2. Science and Innovation: Fundamental Research in Data Science and AI
- 3. Build skills for the future
- 4. Driving an informed public conversation
Fellowships will be offered on a two-year unfunded basis. Turing Fellows are proactive in their engagement with the Institute and receive benefits that being part of the Turing’s vibrant, interdisciplinary and collaborative research community brings, in exchange for notable contributions to the Institute’s goals and successes. All Fellowships will commence in January 2024.
Our Institute for Data Science and AI (IDSAI) can support those interested in making an application, and will be bringing together a panel of people with experience of this scheme, who will be happy to provide potential applicants with formative feedback. Please send your draft application to digitalfutures@manchester.ac.uk by 5pm on 8 September if you would like to access this support.
