[EASST-Eurograd] Predoc, 1 yr project position, Vienna / Austria: digitisation in the life sciences' epistemic cultures

[Kastenhofer, Karen via Eurograd]

Dear colleagues,

we have a one-year 80% position to fill in an upcoming project on shifts in life sciences' epistemic cultures related to new digital approaches.

The project will start March 2026 and is funded by the City of Vienna Anniversary Fund. It builds on a previous project on 'BioDigitisation' at the Natural History Museum of Vienna (for more information, see https://www.oeaw.ac.at/en/ita/projekte/the-natural-history-museum-vienna-as-a-hub-for-biodigitisation). We will extend this approach to other empirical cases within the life sciences.

We welcome applications from predocs interested in participating in a one-year funded project via:

I will be serving as PI, Doris Allhutter will be in charge of co-organising mind scripting workshops.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate contacting me.

Best wishes for 2026!

Karen
