The Dynamic and Distributed Information Systems Group at the University of Zurich is looking for motivated applicants who are interested in conducting research at the intersection of computer science and AI/NLP.
We are seeking applicants who have experience with large language models, large and multi-modal data processing, embedding spaces, and general applications of AI.
In the tradition of our research group to explore both the technical and behavioral dimension of computer science, we are seeking an interested Postdoc to investigate technical approaches for supporting physicians in their daily activities. Specifically, we are looking for a candidate interested in working on systems that help physicians diagnose patients with rare diseases.
Further engagement in projects related to news recommender systems and/or political deliberation is possible, should the candidate wish to.
We offer:
The position is available for candidates interested in these topics, who have a Ph.D. in Computer Science, AI, NLP, or a related discipline (or will be receiving it shortly) as well as a passion for discovering new things. Experience in the areas of AI, large language models, machine learning, semantic web technologies, and/or behavioral analyses such as running experiments with human subjects or surveys are considered a plus but are not strictly necessary. The position also includes some teaching support duties. Proficiency in German is not mandatory but recommended due to the topic of the position.
To apply, please gather your curriculum vitae, cover letter, list of publications, a list of at least three references, two submitted articles or paper drafts of your choice, and your MSc/Ph.D. theses as PDF files and go to

We will be evaluating applications on a rolling basis, so please apply as soon as possible.
The University of Zurich is committed to enhancing the number of women in scientific positions and, therefore, particularly invites women to apply. Women who are as qualified for the position in question as male applicants will be given priority.
