Postdoc summary/title:– Postdoctoral Fellow – Governance of AI (Case Research, Online Experiments and Delphi)
The postdoctoral researcher will be hired to carry out the multidisciplinary research focused on Governance of AI under the PI’s supervision for 2 year. The research fellow is expected to have significant research experience in studying Governance of AI/Autonomous systems/Robotics in Public Policy or closely related fields. The project using a policy design lens will contribute to the literature on governance of AI through mixed-method research in four phases that focus on trust in AI. In this postdoctoral appointment we will conceptualise trust in AI and identify factors to gauge public trust in AI that will serve as a foundation for examining factors such as trust in technology and trust in government to manage the risks. In this appointment the postdoctoral fellow will approach experts to identify essential factors and policy measures to ensure and maintain public trust in AI. Policy design involves choosing appropriate policy instruments, and to have more nuanced perspectives of these, expert surveys will provide insights on regulations for the safe operation of AI systems. We will conduct an online experiment involving respondents from Singapore to examine the institutions and regulatory arrangements that would enhance their trust in AI. The experiment will focus on high-risk AI applications in critical areas like surgery, public service provision, law enforcement, and justice. The findings from the work carried out by the postdoctoral fellow will be consolidated in the final phase of the project to suggest policy instruments to build and enhance trust in AI, particularly in Singapore.
A demonstrated research and publication in studying Governance of AI or Autonomous Systems or similar disruptive technologies is a must

Postdoc summary/title:– Research Fellow (Chemistry)
The successful candidate will work with Prof YAO Shao Qin on chemical biology/drug discovery-related research under a project on “A Paradigm Shift in Kinase Drug Discovery – Development of Lysine-Targeting, Cell-Active Covalent Inhibitors (CIs) with High Potency and Selectivity (MOE T2)”.
Human kinases and epigenetic proteins are important therapeutic targets. Recent development of selective and potent inhibitors of proteins has yielded remarkable results in disease treatment, with numerous drugs already on the market, and many more undergoing clinical trials. Notwithstanding, the discovery of new covalent kinase and epigenetic drugs remains highly challenging, including issues related to selectivity, efficacy and acquired drug resistance. Taking cue from the kinase drug discovery field, the hypothesis of these projects is that a universal strategy for targeted covalent inhibitors (TCIs) capable of potent target inhibition and minimal acquired drug resistance is possible, if highly effective small molecules could be developed to covalently target non-cysteine (C) nucleophilic residues within/near the active-site of kinase/epigenetic proteins. Our recent discovery of covalent kinase inhibitors against BCR-ABL (a key kinase for CML) in which CBA/SA and EBA warheads formed stable, (reversible and irreversible) covalent linkage with catalytic lysine (K) in Abl kinase under cellular environments indicates other covalent chemistries are feasible. Therefore, the goal of the current proposals is to confirm covalent chemistries targeting other nucleophilic residues (E/D/R/M/etc) are possible, and amenable to the development of cell-active, selective TCIs for various therapeutic proteins.
