Networks”, led by Dr. Paolo Turrini (https://www.dcs.warwick.ac.uk/~pturrini/) and funded by the Leverhulme Trust.
<b>The project studies the conditions under which social networks promote desirable social behaviour, integrating theoretical analysis, computer-aided simulations and experiments with humans.</b> Your job is to undertake cutting edge research in the project
areas, with the aim of publishing the results in leading conferences and journals.</span></div>
<div><br class="x_x_x_x_x_x_x_ContentPasted1">
</div>
<div class="x_x_x_x_x_x_x_ContentPasted2">Based in the Computer Science Department of the University of Warwick and within the multi-agent systems research group, you will be collaborating with Dr Paolo Turrini (Computer Science, Warwick), Professor Thomas
Hills (Psychology, Warwick), Dr Fernando P. Santos (Computer Science, University of Amsterdam) and Dr Giulia Andrighetto (Institute of Cognitive Science and Technology, Italian National Research Council). You will be expected to work closely with the PI and
the project partners, remotely and with research visits to Amsterdam and Rome, as well as with masters and PhD students tackling related challenges.
<div><br class="x_x_x_x_x_x_x_ContentPasted2">
</div>
<div class="x_x_x_x_x_x_x_ContentPasted2">You will have the unique opportunity to work on theoretical models that are backed by real-world experiments and use them to make accurate predictions about human behaviour. The project will investigate the properties
of partner selection and decision-making in dynamic social networks, generalising classical evolutionary game theory models and working towards reconciling seemingly contradictory experimental findings. The aim of the research is to establish the conditions
on the network dynamics such that ``social good" – understood as cooperation in an underlying public goods game - will emerge and stabilise even in complex and highly dynamic environments.</div>

<div><br class="x_x_x_x_x_x_x_ContentPasted1">
</div>
<div class="x_x_x_x_x_x_x_ContentPasted1">We seek candidates with proven ability in research and evidence of top-quality research output in one or more of these research areas: graph theory; algorithmic game theory; evolutionary game theory; behavioural game
theory; multiagent reinforcement learning; social network analysis.</div>

<div class="x_x_x_x_x_x_x_ContentPasted1">Warwick has one of the leading Computer Science departments in the UK (ranked 4th in the 2021 and 2nd in the 2014 Research Excellence Framework) with a highly regarded research and teaching culture. The Department is
particularly well-known for its research in algorithms and their applications, including algorithmic game theory and graph theory, which are directly relevant to this project. Warwick has excellent relevant expertise inside and outside the CS Department, particularly
Psychology, Economics, Statistics and applied Mathematics. We are one of the stakeholders of the Alan Turing institute, the UK institute for Data Science and Artificial Intelligence.</div>
