The Johns Hopkins University Data Science and AI (DSAI) Institute welcomes applications for its Postdoctoral Fellowship program, seeking disciplinarily diverse scholars to advance foundational methods of data science and Artificial Intelligence, and their applications across all areas, including science, health, medicine, the humanities, engineering, policy, governance, democracy, and ethics.

The postdoctoral fellows will join the Institute’s growing research community and collaborate with its broad array of faculty members. Fellows will form an interdisciplinary cohort of outstanding scholars who will contribute to the research, education, policy, and outreach goals of the Institute.

This expansion includes a new building, 30 research engineers, and extensive computational resources that will establish Johns Hopkins as one of the largest and leading engineering schools with a top AI research program.

At present, DSAI faculty represent multiple divisions and departments from across the university.

Fellows will collaborate with Institute members across the University, including the Homewood campus, the East Baltimore Health and Medicine campus, the JHU Applied Physics Laboratory in Laurel, MD, and the Washington DC campus.
