Graduate places

Applications are handled through the "Mott" system in the Cavendish. Please apply to the Cavendish and also get in touch with David MacKay. Candidates are interviewed by a panel of `wise men' from the Mott building who decide to whom offers can be made. Each year typically one PhD place is available. British students in the group have typically been funded by CASE awards or EPSRC awards. Non-British students have been funded by Gates studentships, by Microsoft research studentships, and by other scholarships, especially ones awarded by the Cambridge Trusts.

Postdoctoral people

A helpful list of funding sources for aspiring postdocs, compiled by Robert MacKay

If you can raise your own money, get in touch!

We are hoping to have funding (from Oct 2002) for a postdoc to work in biological data-modelling, looking for patterns in DNA microarray data. Total competence in Bayesian data modelling will be required. Contact David MacKay if interested.

The Inference Group is supported by the Gatsby Foundation
and by a partnership award from IBM Zurich Research Laboratory
