Post-Doc Positions on a Narrative Science Project
Applications are invited for 3 Post-Docs (Research Officers) and 1
Research Fellow to work on the EU-funded project Narrative Science
under the direction of the principal investigator, Professor Mary S.
Morgan at the London School of Economics. This team project will
investigate how, when, and why scientists use narratives to explain
their work within their own communities. Each Postdoc researcher will
develop their own case materials within the overall project, working -
by agreement with the project leader - on particular topics and fields
of science past and present. The Research Fellow will help to manage
the project, and to curate a web-based ‘library’ of case studies in
narrative science.
It is expected that candidates for the postdoc positions will have a
PhD in history of science, or a closely related field (including
narrative studies, science communication, etc) provided you have some
experience of historical research work; or you must have an equivalent
track record of independent and original research. The Research
Fellow applicants are expected to have aa PhD and experience of
website creation (and could suit someone in digital humanities), but
please see further details for both positions
As part of their application, candidates are asked to write a brief
response to the larger project summary, found here:
