Launch of the PEPR IA Attractivité Chair program
Publié le
As part of the French Strategy in Artificial Intelligence (AI), PEPR AI Chairs program offers exceptionally talented AI researchers the opportunity to establish and lead a research program and team for a duration of 4 years in France.
This action extends efforts launched in the first period under the Choose France program. This PEPR AI Chairs program is open to both junior and senior researchers, with the primary criterion being an outstanding research track record. Applications are welcome from individuals who earned their PhD either in France or abroad. Candidates who obtained their PhD in France and wish to return must demonstrate substantial international research experience, including mentoring students and managing scientific projects.
This call is open to filling at least 5 positions. Candidates must demonstrate outstanding track records in machine learning (ML), particularly in the thematic areas of the PEPR IA :
- Frugality
- Embedded AI
- Trustworthiness
- Distributed AI
- Mathematical foundations of AI
To attract the best talents, the program will provide customizable integration options tailored to candidates varying degrees of seniority and experience. Candidates may be hosted in laboratories associated with the PEPR, in laboratories not affiliated with the program but with clear and strong synergies with the PEPR IA projects.
The selected candidates may be recruited by any University or Research institute in France. Candidates must propose at least one laboratory to host their research project. They must contact the director of this laboratory and explain in their research proposal how their project aligns with the chosen laboratory, the PEPR AI objectives and how they complement the works already targeted by the ongoing PEPR projects.
The final appointment decision will be made by the PEPR AI Committee after candidates are selected and interviewed by a scientific recruitment committee. Candidates are expected to contribute to the overall French AI Strategy, and applications that align with the PEPR projects and other initiatives of the French AI Strategy, like Cluster AI institutes are encouraged.
The selection process will be conducted on a rolling basis, with regular evaluation sessions throughout the year.
