[CogSci] faculty position in generative AI modeling and computational psychiatry at the University of Michigan

[Sekhar Sripada]

Dear Colleagues,

The Department of Psychiatry at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor,
invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position working at the
intersection of generative AI modeling and computational psychiatry.
Generative artificial intelligence is reshaping research in computational
cognitive science and opens up new opportunities to use deep learning
neural networks as artificial model systems to study the mechanistic basis
of mental disorders. We seek a researcher who will lead Michigan Psychiatry
into this next era of research into generative AI-informed computational
psychiatry.

This is a full-time appointment with an expected start in Summer 2026.

This position is part of a cluster of four new AI-related positions in the
Departments of Psychology, Linguistics, Philosophy, and Psychiatry, with
all four faculty expected to affiliate with the Weinberg Institute for
Cognitive Science. New faculty hired will be expected to establish an
independent research program that produces impactful science and attracts
external funding.

More information about the position and details on how to apply can be
found here <https://careers.umich.edu/job_detail/269759/professor>.


All the best,

Chandra
