Hi all,

I would like to share the following openings at Harvard University's Center for Research on Computation and Society (CRCS) at the John A Paulson School of Engineering and Sciences (SEAS):

Openings:

Postdoctoral Fellowships: https://crcs.seas.harvard.edu/crcs-postdoc-application (Application deadline is December 1, 2021)

Application link: https://academicpositions.harvard.edu/postings/10607

Areas of specific research interest for the 2022-2023 academic year include conservation and population health. Research in this arena may involve, among myriad other possibilities, the use of AI for protecting endangered wildlife, fisheries, and forests; the use of technology to detect and prevent disease; public health challenges amongst those experiencing homelessness, pandemic prevention, or strategies to promote health equity; and ethics and fairness in the application of technological innovation to societal problems. Privacy and security are topics that continue to remain of interest to CRCS. 

CRCS Summer Fellowships for PhD students: https://crcs.seas.harvard.edu/2022-crcs-fellowship

Projects for 2022 fellows will be focused on computational approaches to population health and conservation and may cover the following areas: (1) computational public health, such as for tuberculosis and maternal health, (2) building and analyzing visualization platforms to enhance experiences for social workers and policy-makers, (3) Innovative techniques to predict threats to endangered wildlife, (4) projects in collaboration with colleagues at related interdisciplinary centers, such as C-Change and HGHI, and (5) other related topics.
