Postdoctoral fellowship @University of L'Aquila - Exploratory research on AI Ageism as a socio-technical issue (deadline: April 6, 2024)

The Department of Human Sciences at the University of L'Aquila (Italy) has opened a 1-year postdoctoral fellow position to conduct exploratory research on Ageism in Artificial Intelligence systems as a socio-technical issue (AIA). The goal of the research project is to unveil the age-based biases operating in the AI field (at both the technical and the user level) that discriminate or neglect the interests and needs of older people.

The fellow is expected to carry out one or more of the research activities included in the project, under the supervision of Dr. Francesca Belotti and her research team. The work can also be done remotely, except for occasional meetings if needed.

Eligibility Requirements: PhD in Communication and Media Studies, Social Sciences and Research (and related fields), and/or PhD in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Data Science (and related fields).

Selection will be based on the evaluation of qualifications first, and then of the interview of those who are admitted to it. The application form, along with qualifications, certificates and publications, must be submitted by April 6, 2024 at https://pica.cineca.it/univaq <https://pica.cineca.it/univaq>.

The 1-year grant is expected to start on June 1, 2024.
The annual amount is €23,890.08 gross.
The grant is exempt from local income tax and personal income tax.
Social security contributions will be paid directly by the University of L’Aquila, after the fellow's enrollment in the Separate Management Fund (“Gestione separata”) of the Italian National Social Security Institute (“INPS”).

All information can be found on the call for applications (in Italian): https://www.univaq.it/include/utilities/blob.php?table=assegni_ricerca&id=958&item=bando <https://www.univaq.it/include/utilities/blob.php?table=assegni_ricerca&id=958&item=bando>.
