The aims of the projects are:

  • To develop theory of session types (including mechanisation by, e.g. Coq and Isabelle, automata theory, verification, security analysis, model checking, process algebra, semantics, and logic)
  • To design and implement programming languages and systems with session types; OR
  • To study quantum computing using programming languages or concurrency theory techniques


A key objective is either to design and implement programming API or verification tools for concurrent and distributed systems and/or investigate theory of session types; or to study quantum computing using session types or concurrency theory.

As a researcher on this project, you will be expected to lead research projects you are working on.

You will work collaboratively with the PIs and other members of the research team on the project, as well as independently leading and developing their own body of research in line with the project's aims.

The research group carries out world leading research relating to theoretical computer science, programming languages and verifications.

More information on the project can be found here:

Applicants will be required to upload a supporting statement, setting out how you meet the selection criteria.
