About this position

Nina Miolane is recruiting PhD students for Fall 2027 to join the Geometric Intelligence Lab at the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB), in the United States.

The lab studies the mathematical laws of intelligence in brains and machines. Its interdisciplinary research brings together mathematics, geometry, topology, group theory, neuroscience, statistics, physics, computer science and artificial intelligence to understand how neural networks learn to solve tasks.

Prospective students can join through the UCSB Electrical and Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Mathematics or DYNS PhD programs. Applicants with interests in geometric intelligence, theoretical AI, neural-network learning, mathematical neuroscience or related quantitative fields may be a strong fit.

The lab is part of the University of California, Santa Barbara campus and the wider UCSB AI community, including the REAL AI Initiative. The position is located at UCSB in Santa Barbara, California. No funding, stipend or tuition details are provided in the announcement.

Applicants should review the relevant UCSB doctoral program and lab pages and apply for Fall 2027 admission through the appropriate departmental process.
