PhD in Trustworthy AI for Clinical Trials and Agentic AI for Clinical Trial Support University of Limerick in United Kingdom

PhD opportunity in Trustworthy AI for Clinical Trials / Agentic AI for Clinical Trial Support at the University of Limerick, co-supervised with Prof. Conor Ryan. The project sits at the intersection of computer science, medical science, public health, digital health, and human-centred computing.

The research will develop trustworthy, multilingual LLM-based methods to improve communication of clinical trial information, including eligibility, risks, and expectations. It will explore agentic AI features such as structured reasoning, response provenance, and self-consistency to improve reliability, transparency, and user trust in healthcare settings.

Ideal candidates should have experience or strong interest in large language models, natural language processing, machine learning, deep learning with PyTorch or TensorFlow, and trustworthy/ethical AI topics such as explainability, bias, and reliability. Helpful background includes digital health, clinical data, multilingual NLP, retrieval-augmented generation, agentic AI, or applied coding on complex real-world datasets.

Applications should be emailed to [email protected] by 5pm, 30 July 2026. The post notes that further details are in the attached advert.
