Dear colleagues,

We are looking for a PhD candidate in Emotionally and Socially Aware Natural 
Language Processing at LIACS, Leiden University. The PhD will be supervised by 
myself, Prof. Suzan Verberne, and Prof. Joost Broekens. The position is part of 
the Human-AI cluster, a great environment for interdisciplinary research where 
AI and machine learning meet philosophy, cognitive science, and the creative 
arts.

This PhD position focuses on advancing AI models that don’t just optimize for 
accuracy, but also recognize and respond to emotions responsibly and adapt to 
social context. Current systems often reproduce or amplify social biases, 
generate toxic context, or do not respond safely to emotional cues. The goal of 
this PhD is to design AI systems that promote inclusivity, fairness, and 
emotional intelligence in human-AI interaction, with a particular focus on 
applications in mental well-being, education, and other socially sensitive 
contexts where how AI interacts with people has a big impact.

The deadline to apply is November 17, 2025.

Details on the position and the application procedure can be found in the job
