    Protein lipidation is the covalent attachment of lipids to proteins, regulating their trafficking, protein–protein interactions, and stability. This post-translational modification is dynamically controlled by families of lipidation 'writers' and 'erasers', which collectively modify over 1,500 proteins and influence many aspects of human biology in both...

Phd Position in Justifications in Human-ai Teams for Hybrid Intelligence

Utrecht Oost, Nederland Universiteit Utrecht Voltijd

Join our team for this fully funded four-year PhD project at Utrecht University You will explore Justifications in Human-AI teams within the Hybrid Intelligence (HI) project. _Hybrid Intelligence_, funded by a ten-year Gravitation Grant by the Dutch Ministry of Education, Culture and Science, brings together many prominent AI researchers in the Netherlands. Our vision: to expand human intellect through ethical, explainable, and human-centered Human-AI teams collaborating to achieve common goals.

**Your job**:
For Hybrid Intelligence (HI) teams to function effectively, all members-human and AI alike-must be able to exhibit behaviour that accounts for and is justifiable with respect to the shared team’s ethics and team norms. In this project, you will investigate computational models and mechanisms that enable AI agents in Hybrid Human-AI teams to learn, adapt, and utilise shared team norms through interactions to ensure their actions are aligned and justifiable. This includes exploring how and when AI can provide, or request, justifications for team members’ actions based on the team norms.

The project offers a unique opportunity to tackle questions such as:

- How can we computationally represent and learn evolving team norms in HI systems?
- How can we design AI agent architectures that integrate team norms into their decision-making processes to ensure that both AI and human behaviour is justifiable?
- What computational mechanisms enable the generation and requesting of justifications based on team norms and individual team member characteristics?
- How do AI-generated justifications impact trust and effectiveness within human-AI teams?

**Your qualities**:
You have a technical Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence background (Msc), with expertise in one or more of the following areas:

- design and development of intelligent and social agents;
- understanding and modeling of norms, trust, and team dynamics in computational systems.
- Explainable AI and Social and Everyday explainability;
- Human-Computer Interaction and User Studies.

In addition to the required technical expertise, you have the following qualities:

- analytical and problem-solving skills;
- resilience and perseverance;
- intellectual curiosity and a proactive learning attitude;
- a genuine interest in collaboration.

**Our offer**:

- a position for 18 months, with an extension to a total of four years upon successful assessment in the first 18 months;
- a gross monthly salary between €2,901 and €3,707 in the case of full-time employment (salary scale P under the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities (CAO NU));
- 8% holiday pay and 8.3% year-end bonus;
- a pension scheme, partially paid parental leave and flexible terms of employment based on the CAO NU.

In addition to the terms of employment laid down in the CAO NU, Utrecht University has a number of schemes and facilities of its own for employees. This includes schemes facilitating professional development, leave schemes and schemes for sports and cultural activities, as well as discounts on software and other IT products. We also offer access to additional employee benefits through our Terms of Employment Options Model. In this way, we encourage our employees to continue to invest in their growth.
