This fully funded PhD project at the University of Southampton focuses on the formal verification of neuro-symbolic cyber-physical systems, including drones, medical devices, and robots. The research addresses the challenge of integrating neural components—trained for optimal performance and safety—with symbolic models of cyber and physical behaviors. These models are verified using interactive theorem provers and advanced mathematical libraries to reason about both discrete and continuous dynam...

The University of Birmingham's School of Computer Science invites applications for a PhD position focused on the development of self-evolving AI (LLM) software systems. This pioneering project addresses the fundamental challenges of engineering reliable and high-quality AI-driven software systems, particularly those built upon Large Language Models (LLMs). As AI increasingly shapes the landscape of software engineering, this research aims to design neural-symbolic AI solutions that can automatic...

[£20,780 per annum studentship.] This PhD studentship at the University of Bristol Business School offers a unique opportunity to explore consumer psychology in the context of cellular agriculture, with a particular focus on perceptions and adoption of cultured meat. The project is delivered in collaboration with CARMA, the EPSRC-funded Cellular Agriculture Manufacturing Hub, and is embedded within a multidisciplinary environment at the new Temple Quarter Enterprise Campus. The research aims to ...
