[PhilPhys] JOB: Postdoc in digital humanities and history/philosophy/sociology of science (ERC-project, Berlin)

[Adrian Wüthrich]

Dear List Members,

The ERC-funded project “Network Epistemology in Practice” (NEPI) is 
seeking a research assistant in the Digital Humanities with a strong 
interest in the history, philosophy, and/or sociology of science. NEPI 
investigates digital communication within the ATLAS collaboration at 
CERN, one of the world’s largest experiments in particle physics. The 
project aims to uncover how knowledge is generated in large scientific 
collaborations by applying methods from social network analysis, large 
language models (LLMs), and knowledge graph technologies. As part of a 
small, supportive research team, you’ll have the opportunity to shape 
your own research profile while contributing to an ambitious 
interdisciplinary project.

Please note that the application deadline is fast approaching: October 
13, 2025. Interviews with short-listed candidates are expected to take 
place between October 27 and October 30 (either on-site or online).

The position can be filled at the earliest possible date and is funded 
full-time until the end of the NEPI project (Dec. 31, 2027). 
Continuation in follow-up projects is envisioned. Part-time employment 
may be possible.

For application instructions and job details, please refer to the full

Further information on the department, team and NEPI project is 
available at https://www.tu.berlin/en/hps-mod-sci.

In case you have questions, please feel free to reach out to Adrian 
Wüthrich (adrian.wuethrich at tu-berlin.de), the PI of the project, or to 
members of the project team.

Further dissemination to potential candidates would be greatly appreciated!

Kind regards,
Adrian Wüthrich
