[Commlist] Post-doc position: Pandemic Communication in Times of Populism @Loughborough

Mon Dec 12 23:25:46 GMT 2022




*Research Associate for the project “PANCOPOP: Pandemic Communication in Times of Populism”*

*The position is fixed term starting 1st April 2023 or as soon as possible thereafter.  Full-time for 9 months or part-time with a minimum FTE0.75 for a maximum 12 months (variations within the part-time range will be considered).*

**

This is an exciting opportunity to join the PANCOPOP Project, led by Professor Sabina Mihelj from the Communication and Media division in the School of Social Sciences and Humanities. The project involves an international team of researchers who are developing a comparative study of health crisis communication in the context of populist politics, designed to bring significant advances in knowledge at the intersection of political communication and public health. The focus is on four countries that were led by populist leaders during the pandemic, and which capture different types of populist responses to the pandemic: Brazil, Poland, Serbia, and the U.S.

The project will also inform recommendations aimed at building more resilient media organisations that are better equipped to withstand the challenges of future pandemics in divided societies. The recommendations will be developed and disseminated in collaboration with key organisations representing media regulators, communication professionals, and public service media.

The successful candidate will work under the supervision of Professor Sabina Mihelj and will be responsible for data collection and analysis in Serbia and for supporting the delivery of impact activities. The post holder will also collaborate with international team members based in Brazil, U.S., and Poland, as well as with non-academic stakeholders from media industries.

If you are an organised, motivated, and proactive individual, with relevant skills and qualifications, this is a great opportunity to join the project and contribute to its success.

The post will be based at Loughborough University in the Communication and Media Division, School of Social Sciences and Humanities, and affiliated with the Centre for Research in Communication and Culture.
