3. Postdoctoral Position in Epidemiology and Economics 

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

The successful candidate will develop quantitative risk assessment and mathematical models as tools to quantify the probability of introduction and within-farm spread of pathogens. These models will be used to estimate the impact of biosecurity measures on pathogen transmission, to prioritise which biosecurity measures should be implemented and/or to reduce the probability of introduction and spread of pathogens at farm level. Within the epidemiological models the cost-effectiveness of implementing critical biosecurity measures will be assessed for both endemic and epidemic/emerging infectious diseases relevant for intensive and extensive production systems.

This requires development of computational models to quantify the relative importance of different transmission routes, allowing a deeper understanding of the impact of biosecurity practices on the introduction and spread of pathogens in the herds, and to demonstrate the value of improved biosecurity by quantifying the cost of biosecurity measures and their relationship to the effectiveness or monetary savings for the private industry.

4. Postdoctoral Position in Textile Archaeology and Sudanese Medieval History

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

The successful postdoctoral candidate will focus on the textile material of the medieval period, while contributing to the overall research aims of Fashioning Sudan. Textile research in Sudan has predominantly focused on the cataloguing of existing collections, excavated in the beginning of the 20th century and often without clear contextual information. Efforts have been mostly dedicated to establishing technical benchmarks, especially for weaving techniques.

In contrast, the postdoctoral candidate will engage on a thoroughly archaeological study, combining the identification of raw material, the documentation of the textile chaîne opératoire, and – more importantly – the interpretation of the different uses of textiles during the life of the owner and within the graves. Together with the project’s team, the postdoctoral candidate will empirically and theoretically analyse the different types of garments and corresponding dress practices.

8. Postdoctoral Position in aphasiology

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

The Postdoc will be part of the project Grammar and agrammatism in Greenlandic (GreenGram), financed by Independent Research Fund Denmark. This project addresses a challenge raised by the first study of agrammatism in a polysynthetic language, Greenlandic. In this study, we found slow speech rates and short utterances, as expected of agrammatic speech, but almost none of the grammatical problems that gave agrammatism its name.

The challenge raised by the study can be formulated in two questions:

  • Can the findings in the pilot study be replicated on a larger set of data collected from a group of well-diagnosed subjects?
  • What makes Greenlandic grammar, and presumably polysynthetic grammar in general, (seemingly) immune to agrammatism?

The project brings together linguists, aphasiologists and neuroscientists to answer these questions based on the first coherent functional-cognitive theory of what grammar is. The answer to the second question is a key to understanding the neurocognitive mechanisms behind grammar and agrammatism, and a key to aid Greenlanders with agrammatism.

14. Postdoctoral Position in Plant nutrition and analytical chemistry

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

The main goal of the AnaGrain project is to investigate the potential of nutrient analyses of cereal grains for developing novel and sustainable fertilization strategies for future crop production. This will be achieved by fast and cost-effective nutrient analyses of grains post-harvest using the high-throughput technology: Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS). LIBS will initially be calibrated against traditional methods for multi-element analysis (ICP-OES).

Potential links between plant nutritional status during critical time-points in the growth season and its impact on the nutrient content of grains and harvest yields will be investigated by greenhouse and field based growth experiments. On this basis, it is expected that LIBS analysis of cereal grains can be used as a predictive measure of fertilization requirements for the succeeding growth season. The AnaGrain project consortium involves partners from University of Copenhagen, the Danish industry and the agricultural sector.

26. Postdoctoral Position in studies of automated welfare provision in Europe

Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:

The position is part of the Automated Welfare (AUTO-WELF) research project which runs 2022-2025 and is funded by CHANSE. AUTO-WELF approaches automated welfare from the perspective of the people implicated in the processes of automated decision-making (ADM)—the infrastructural engineers and designers of automated decision-making systems, the case workers who collaborate with automated decision-making systems about welfare and service provision, and the people whose data feed the systems and who are targeted in processes of enhancing welfare through automation.

AUTO-WELF addresses digital transformations of work by focusing on development, data work and human-machine collaboration in ADM processes; as well as the role of technological, social, and cultural dynamics in enhancing or hindering advances in automating welfare for the benefit of the people. The candidate’s research activities will contribute to the aims of the project through the planning and execution of empirical studies of case workers and citizens’ experiences of automated welfare provision in Denmark, and to comparative studies of these across EU countries.
