Full job description

We are seeking a highly motivated Research Associate in NLP, Mechanistic Interpretability and Trustworthy Generative AI. This role offers an exciting opportunity to contribute to AIRIS: Mechanism-Informed Generative AI for Causal and Dynamical Modelling in Multimodal Biomedical Research, a Horizon Europe project developing mechanism-informed generative AI for biomedical research. The post holder will be based in the Department of Computer Science and the National Centre for Text Mining.

Develop biomedical NLP methods for mechanism extraction
Design and implement methods for extracting biomedical entities, events, relations, causal claims and mechanistic pathways from scientific literature.
Build pipelines that link textual evidence to biomedical ontologies, knowledge graphs, causal models and semantic representations.
Develop methods to assess AI-generated hypotheses for plausibility, novelty, evidence support, contradiction, uncertainty and explainability.
Publish in leading NLP, AI and biomedical informatics venues including ACL, EMNLP, NAACL, NeurIPS, ICLR, AAAI, AMIA and relevant biomedical journals and present research at project meetings, conferences and stakeholder workshops.

We welcome candidates who bring diverse perspectives, experiences, and approaches to their work.

About You

We encourage applications from individuals with a wide range of backgrounds and experiences. You should demonstrate:

Essential Criteria:

A PhD in Computer Science, specialising in Artificial Intelligence, Natural Language Processing
Strong research background in NLP, LLMs.
Experience with mechanistic interpretability, explainable AI, causal representation learning, model probing, attribution methods or faithfulness evaluation.
Strong programming skills in Python and experience with modern machine learning frameworks such as PyTorch, JAX or TensorFlow.
Experience with bias and fairness evaluation in NLP, LLMs, biomedical AI or clinical prediction systems.

Desirable Criteria:

Experience in biomedical NLP, clinical NLP, biomedical literature mining, event extraction, relation extraction, pathway extraction or causal knowledge extraction.
Knowledge of factuality evaluation, hallucination detection, claim verification, evidence retrieval or scientific hypothesis evaluation.
Experience with graph-based methods, knowledge graphs, Graph-RAG, semantic search or neuro-symbolic AI.
Familiarity with multimodal biomedical data, including clinical records, omics, imaging reports, patient-reported outcomes or longitudinal health data.
Interest in trustworthy AI, responsible AI, AI safety, research integrity and translational biomedical applications.

We value transferable skills and real-world experience as much as formal qualifications.

Our benefits include:
Generous employer contribution pension
29 days annual leave plus bank holidays, along with Christmas closure
Ride to work and EV car scheme available
