GW has everything you need to succeed in discovery. Outstanding research, state-of-the-art facilities and world-class faculty support discovery and innovative solutions.
The George Washington University and The NSF Institute for Trustworthy AI in Law and Society (TRAILS) aims to transform the practice of AI from one driven primarily by technological innovation to one driven with attention to ethics, human rights, and support for communities whose voices have been marginalized in mainstream AI.
TRAILS is seeking talented, highly motivated applicants for multiple postdoctoral fellowship positions to conduct research and scholarship focused on approaches to AI that advance trust and trustworthiness. These are one- or two-year fellowships, with flexible start dates.
