• Contract

A Leverhulme Trust-funded PhD studentship exploring how intelligence can emerge from interactions between hydrogel networks, a soft robotic body and its environment. The researcher will fabricate hydrogels, run bioelectrical measurements and connect physical experiments to artificial neural networks, working across materials science and biomedical engineering.

Artificial Neural Networks

• London
• Hybrid
• Senior

Builds AI-powered planning systems for global warehouses and last-mile operations, developing machine learning models, optimisation algorithms and operational simulations. Takes high-impact models from prototype to monitored production, sets technical direction and mentors data scientists while working with engineers, product managers and retail partners.
