Dear colleagues,
We’d like to share this call for candidates. The Universitat Oberta de
Catalunya (UOC) Research and Innovation Committee has agreed to publish a
call for applications for four places for three-year postdoctoral research
fellowships. The positions are open to postdoctoral teaching and research
staff in any of the fields of study at the University and its research
centres – the Internet Interdisciplinary Institute (IN3
) and the eLearn Center (eLC
).
The deadline for applications, as indicated in the terms and conditions, is
4th March 2018.
As applicants need to be endorsed by a research group, we are seeking
candidates who are interested in joining our research group CareNet at
the Internet
Interdisciplinary Institute (IN3). The goal of CareNet is to understand the
impact of technologies, particularly ICT, on the social and cultural
reconfiguration of care and preparedness in the network society. This
interest is built upon our interdisciplinary background in Science and
Technology Studies (STS), Disability Studies, Digital Sociology and Social
Psychology.
Our main current research lines are:
1.
Technological and social innovations for later life and independent
living.
2.
The reconfiguration of care in the context of crisis: concerned and
self-help groups, technoscientific activism, mutual support and
communities
of care.
3.
Urban infrastructures of care: Socio-spatial relations of labour, care
and the body.
4.
Disability, gender and sexuality.
5.
Social Studies of Emergencies, Crisis and Disasters.
6.
Sensing technologies, public awareness and participation.
For more details about the research group and these lines, have a look at
this web .
For more information and the full text of the calls, please see the attached

If you are interested in submitting a research proposal to this grant and
join our group, please send a motivation letter, a CV including list of
publications, and a statement on current and future research interests by
email to Israel Rodríguez (irodriguezgir@uoc.edu) or Daniel López (
