Signal Processing

Seminar by Morten Kjaergaard (Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen) on rapid FPGA-based feedback for superconducting qubits, including sparse-sampling techniques and on-FPGA inference enabling millisecond-timescale T1 estimation, ~100 ms readout optimization, and over 74,000 consecutive recalibrations in closed-loop operation.

Develop sensor technologies that quantify behaviour and synchronise those measurements with neural activity. The BRAIN Initiative call supports methods capable of capturing richer interactions among brain activity, behaviour and the surrounding environment, with emphasis on practical research utility. U01 projects may last up to five years, and individual budgets should reflect project needs. The next application deadline is 15 June 2027 at 5 p.m. in the applicant organisation’s local time. The programme-wide funding allocation is not an individual award limit.

Spotify’s Artist-First AI Music Lab seeks research scientists across seniority levels. Work develops diffusion and flow-matching methods for vocal synthesis, preference-aligned music generation, and audio editing, then tests and translates research into products with interdisciplinary teams. The role includes publication and scientific presentations. This permanent role is listed in New York and permits remote work within North America where Spotify has a work location. Collaboration follows the team’s Eastern-time schedule. The advertised US base salary is USD 133,194–190,278 plus equity. The application form is open and no fixed closing date is stated.
