Neil Lawrence

  • The DeepMind Professor of Machine Learning
  • Senior AI Fellow, The Alan Turing Institute
  • Visiting Professor of Machine Learning, University of Sheffield

Neil is a professor of machine learning whose technical expertise is in uncertainty and machine learning methods. With the increased impact of machine learning in society, in particular its use as the principal technology underpinning modern artificial intelligence, Neil has also become interested in public understanding of machine learning, policy decisions around machine learning and the implications for data governance.

As well as his departmental roles he serves on  the board of the conference AISTATS and the ELLIS Foundation, and as the founding and series editor for the Proceedings of Machine Learning Research.

For more details about his activities please check his webpage here.

Research

Neil Lawrence is the inaugural DeepMind Professor of Machine Learning at the University of Cambridge. He has been working on machine learning models for over 20 years. He recently returned to academia after three years as Director of Machine Learning at Amazon. His main interest is the interaction of machine learning with the physical world. This interest was triggered by deploying machine learning in the African context, where ‘end-to-end’ solutions are normally required. This has inspired new research directions at the interface of machine learning and systems research, this work is funded by a Senior AI Fellowship from the Alan Turing Institute. Neil is also visiting Professor at the University of Sheffield and the co-host of Talking Machines.
