University of Copenhagen

The University of Copenhagen is seeking a highly motivated and talented Postdoc fellow to commence on February 1, 2025, or after agreement in the Whiteley Group at the Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Basic Metabolic Research (CBMR) and Medical Museion.

The Postdoc fellowship is part of the CBMR International PhD & Postdoc Program.

About Us
Medical Museion

The Postdoc position is based at Medical Museion, which houses CBMR's Program 4: Cardiometabolic Research in Society and Culture. Medical Museion is a university museum in the Department of Public Health, hosting an interdisciplinary research group that looks at health and medical sciences in their cultural, historical, and philosophical context.

Job Description
The project 'Becoming an interdisciplinary scientist: Communicating values and valuing difference' will ask:

  1. What role does communication of disciplinary values and goals play in interdisciplinary collaboration?
  2. What kinds of training can support early career researchers (ECRs) and interdisciplinary research groups in talking about disciplinary values and goals, and how can this fruitfully intersect with training for public communication?

The project outlines five work packages, which will be developed in dialogue with your interests and expertise. You will lead a novel cross-disciplinary literature review and an interview study of mid-career scientists' perspectives on the project theme, translating the outputs into practical activities to improve scientists' ability to communicate disciplinary values and goals within interdisciplinary and public settings.

Profile
The Postdoc fellowship is aimed at early-career researchers with a background in science communication studies; STS or science studies; science education; or other relevant disciplines. Required qualifications include:

  • PhD in a relevant humanities or social science discipline.
  • Excellent track record in relation to career stage.
  • Confidence designing own research methodologies.
  • Enthusiasm for collaborating across disciplines.
  • Excellent English communication skills, both written and oral.

Eligibility
The Postdoc fellowships within the CBMR International PhD & Postdoc Program are open for applicants that hold a PhD degree awarded from a university outside of Denmark or who can document at least 12 months of full-time research experience from outside Denmark.

Terms of Employment
The employment as Postdoc is a full-time position for 3 years, starting on February 1, 2025, or after agreement.

Application Procedure
Your online application must be submitted in English and include the following documents:

  • Cover letter expressing the motivation and previous research experience of the applicant.
  • Curriculum vitae.
  • Copy of the PhD degree certificate.
  • List of publications.
  • References (name and contact details of at least two references).
