Join LUMI
Build careful, useful, and trustworthy AI research with us
We welcome inquiries from prospective graduate students, undergraduate research interns, and research collaborators interested in trustworthy language models, reliable agents, multimodal evaluation, and AI safety. We value curiosity, initiative, careful experimentation, clear communication, and respect for collaborators.
Opportunities
Who we are looking for
Graduate students
Prospective graduate students who want to work on trustworthy LLMs, agent reliability, evaluation, or multimodal systems are encouraged to introduce their interests and prior experience.
Undergraduate research interns
Undergraduate students can inquire about research internships. Prior research is helpful but not required; evidence of initiative, solid programming foundations, and willingness to read and test ideas carefully is especially valuable.
Collaboration and projects
We welcome research collaboration, project participation, and proposal discussions with academic and industry partners whose goals align with the research of the lab.
Getting in touch
Writing your first email
There is no required format. Three things are useful to know:
- a short introduction
- what you would like to work on, and what draws you to it
- your CV
Transcripts, code samples, a start date and links to past work are all welcome, though none are expected. If you are unsure whether your background fits, write anyway.
An inquiry does not constitute an admission or appointment offer. Formal university admission requirements and timelines apply separately.
FAQ
Common questions
Do I need a fully formed research topic?
No. A concrete area of interest and evidence that you have explored it are enough for an initial inquiry.
Is prior research required for undergraduate interns?
No, but programming fundamentals, initiative, and willingness to read papers carefully are important.
Can I propose a collaboration?
Yes. Briefly describe the shared problem, expected contribution, and timeline.
