that the new group will focus on research into theoretical aspects, 
methodologies and practical applications of machine learning, as well as 
providing fundamental expertise in core machine learning to the School’s 
other research areas. We are seeking a good team worker who will be able 
to both align with and complement our existing research activity.

The University of Lincoln is a forward-thinking, ambitious institution 
and you will be working in the heart of a thriving, beautiful, safe and
