<span style="font-family:"-webkit-standard",serif;color:black">The University of Manchester is making a strategic investment in fundamentals of AI, to complement its existing strengths in AI applications across several prominent research fields in the University,
which give high-profile application and collaboration opportunities for the outcomes of fundamental AI research. The university is one of the most active partners of the national Alan Turing Institute, hosts 33 Turing Fellows and Fellows of the European Laboratory
of Learning and Intelligent Systems ELLIS, in the new <a href="https://www.manchester.ac.uk/discover/news/university-of-manchester-becomes-european-centre-for-leading-ai-research/" title="https://www.manchester.ac.uk/discover/news/university-of-manchester-becomes-european-centre-for-leading-ai-research/">ELLIS
Unit Manchester</a>. The university’s ambition is to establish a leading AI centre at the cross section of these opportunities. The university has recently launched a <a href="https://www.ai-fun.manchester.ac.uk/" title="https://www.ai-fun.manchester.ac.uk/">Centre
for AI Fundamentals</a> and has already recruited four new academics to it. These two lectureships continue this series of positions in establishing the new Centre.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
