Applications are invited for a Lecturer to join the Institute of Perception,
Action and Behaviour, part of the School of Informatics, at The University
of Edinburgh. For an exceptional candidate, appointment to the position of
Senior Lecturer or Reader will be considered.

The Institute carries out research in Machine Vision, Graphics, and Robotics.
It also has substantial cross links to the Institute of Adaptive and Neural
Computation. Candidates with an interest in the computational neuroscience
of vision, machine learning, or the application of computer vision to
robotics are particularly encouraged to apply; but applications in any
area of Image and Vision computing will be considered.

The School of Informatics plays a leading role in the EPRSC Centres for
Doctoral Training in Robotics and Autonomous Systems, and in Data Science,
with opportunities for the appointee to supervise PhD students from the
Centres (and from other sources). In partnership with Heriot Watt University,
we have recently established the Edinburgh Centre for Robotics, with
substantial infrastructure funding for robotic platforms and supporting
facilities. The University of Edinburgh is also one of the five joint
venture partner universities in the UK's Alan Turing Institute for Data
Science; this gives rise to opportunities to interact with PhD students,
research fellows and senior researchers within the Turing Institute.
In addition, there are many opportunities to interact with other parts of
the University and beyond in order to further the candidate's research agenda.

The successful candidate will have a PhD; experience as an established
researcher in Image and Vision Computing; enthusiasm to undertake original
research including leading a research group; ability to engage with
undergraduate and postgraduate teaching and academic supervision; ability to
be involved in enhancing eLearning and on-line teaching initiatives.
