Contract Type: Fixed-term for 18 months

We have an exciting opportunity in the Department of Computer Science for someone with a passion for the analysis and visualisation of sequential data looking to use their skills to make an impact on the analysis of team behaviours.

You will join the Complex Systems Modelling research group in a large and diverse academic department.
