Fellows

Our Fellows represent a community of exceptional researchers at the forefront of data science, AI andor related disciplines.

There are four types of fellowship at the Institute, and each has its own aims, structure, funding arrangements (if applicable) and target audience. 

Turing Fellows

A flagship scheme at the Institute, Turing Fellows are the next generation of world leading researchers. They have proven research excellence in data science, artificial intelligence, or a related field, and research interests aligned to the Institute’s Science and Innovation priorities. They are active members of the Turing community, contribute new ideas, and help grow the research capacity of the Institute. Turing Fellowships are offered on an unfunded basis through an annual, open, UK-wide call.

Turing Research Fellows

Turing Research Fellowships provide researchers from a diverse range of backgrounds with placement opportunities and the training, mentoring and career development support to enable them to work across sectors and advance their careers. Turing Research Fellows start by being embedded in a Turing project and throughout the first year, placement opportunities in industry, government and the third sector organisations are shaped.
