Abstract:
The Shelby Cullom Davis Center theme for 2024-2026 is Truth and Information.
Recent debates about truth, lies, and authenticity have reminded us that truth has a history, and that the meaning of truthfulness and justice keep changing over time. The Shelby Cullom Davis Center for Historical Studies at Princeton University seeks applications from scholars exploring the historical evolution of regimes and practices of establishing, telling, and writing truth. We understand the notion of truth broadly: as a philosophical and epistemological category, an ideal of social equity and political justice, and a principle governing historical writing, legal, and scientific investigation. We invite historians who study the role of ideology, religion, informational technology, and media in the historical evolution of truth. We are also interested in projects on the history of lying, deception, and misinformation. Intellectual historians, historians of art, gender, race, sexuality, information, governance, science, and technology from antiquity to the modern period whose work engages with these subjects are encouraged to apply. Topics may include (but are not limited to) the use and misuse of facts in political propaganda, problems of evidence and objectivity, authenticity and source criticism, fakes, forgery and conspiracy theories, and diplomatic, inter- and intra- national reconciliation.

Abstract:
The purpose of the residential fellowship program is to encourage and support scholarship of the highest quality on topics related to ancient Greek civilization (e.g., archaeology, art history, epigraphy, history, literary criticism, philology, philosophy, pedagogical applications, reception, and interdisciplinary studies).
The program aims to foster interaction among researchers from diverse backgrounds and regions of the world. Accordingly, the CHS welcomes projects with a traditional basis in Classics and those that adopt collaborative or interdisciplinary approaches to the field of Hellenic studies drawn from fields across the humanities, social sciences, and/or natural sciences.
In addition to supporting scholars working independently, the CHS also welcomes applications from individuals engaged in collaborative research projects (such as co-written or co-edited volumes, digital databases, or software tools). Each member of a collaboration should apply individually for a fellowship and describe the nature of the collaboration on the application form.

Eligibility:
Applicants who do not yet have a higher research degree will normally be expected to have submitted for a doctorate before taking up a Junior Research Fellowship. These Fellowships are non-stipendiary and therefore candidates must demonstrate they have adequate funding and the support of their academic department, including visa sponsorship where necessary, for the duration of the Fellowship. Normally, the successful applicants will not have held a DPhil/PhD for more than five years, but the College will apply discretion when considering applications from those who have taken a career break.

Abstract:
The aim of the Junior Research Fellowships is to kick-start an interdisciplinary community of learners who are interested in investigating and understanding the intricate relationship between artificial intelligence (AI) and the future of social, emotional, and mental wellbeing. As such, it is expected that the fellows’ research will be closely related to the theme of social, emotional and mental wellbeing and, in addition, also overlap with at least one if not more of the themes below:
AI system development
User-centred design / human-AI collaboration
Implementation science within developing countries
Ethics / policy implications of emerging AI / machine learning technologies
Fellows will be selected from a diverse pool of research areas, likely spanning schools of Social Policy & Development, Computer Science, Psychology, Education, Business, and Ethics/Philosophy. The Junior Research Fellowships should allow the fellows to further amplify and build on each other’s work, as well as seed a wider network of like-minded researchers across the University of Oxford.
In alignment with the aims of building an interdisciplinary network, the fellows would be expected to:
Host regular public seminars highlighting their own work, as well as providing space for invited external guests whose work is of interest to the group (with potential for additional CfC funding for external talks as necessary). It is expected that the fellows will organise at least two such seminars each term;
Take advantage of the opportunity to work with the CfC team to publish op-ed articles or similar on a topic of interest for lay audiences;
Share a short update on their work and publications with CfC twice a year.
