Postdoc in social network emergence and methodology (interdisciplinary) at SODAS, University of Copenhagen

Part of the larger project called 'New computational approaches for understanding the emergence of social network structures', funded by the Novo Nordisk Foundation, SODAS is looking for a postdoc.

The postdoc will likely work on exploring a new idea for how information about underlying processes can be extracted from network data, in collaboration with the project team. The postdoc may also be involved in other network-related research. There will be opportunity for the postdoc to influence the project and develop new research ideas within the project frame.

The work will include modelling of networks and/or analysis of social network data from various species, including a long-term dataset from a free-ranging population of Rhesus macaques in Puerto Rico. Field work is not a requirement for the project, but a stay at the macaque field site can potentially be integrated if it is of interest for the postdoc.

The position involves conducting research, presenting findings at scientific conferences, writing research articles, and potentially a limited amount of teaching/student supervision.

The deadline for applications is 23:59 CETS on October 6, 2024.
