Job: Postdoc in Data Valuation (deadline Thursday!)
Apologies for cross-posting
Please forward to anyone you think might be interested.
I'm recruiting a postdoc in data value/valuation to work with me and my collaborators (from Lancaster University, Melbourne University, McMaster University & Centre for International Governance Innovation) on a SSHRC-funded project titled Digital Data Value Paradox: An Empirical Investigation of Personal Data Valuation.
The research builds on my existing research, including my new book "Data Enclaves".
The project will investigate three empirical examples of digital personal data valuation represented by international standard-setters, law courts, and digital technology businesses in order to develop a common definition and conception of personal data value and valuation that policymakers and others can use to pursue policies, regulations, and standards that promote the social value of personal data.
Based at York University, Canada. Deadline: 30 November 2023.

For informal inquiries, please email me.
Thanks, Kean
