Our people

We're a vibrant group with academics, researchers, and students from over 10 countries, across Computer Science, Physics, Mathematics, and Economics.

Dr Jan Buermann

Research Fellow (C-Centric AI Systems)

Research interests

  • My main interest is the design of fair AI systems which manage the diverging interests of self-interested agents for the efficient usage of resources under uncertainty.
  • I am particularly interested in fully including and considering agents' incentives relating to costs, participation, manipulation and fairness.
  • I am excited about working on problems that bridge fundamental and practical real-world applicable research, especially in connection to smart energy systems and net zero/decarbonisation.
