– Project SENSOR
A range of new interventions targetting our sensory experiences will soon become commonplace in our society: Virtual and augmented reality, scientific sensory tools, sensory prosthetics, stroboscopic stimulation, psychedelic substances, and so on. In this project, we will study these interventions to develop a better philosophical understanding of the sensory experiences these new interventions provide, but also of ordinary sensory experiences. We aim to fully understand the wide range of perceptual and epistemic benefits that these technologies may offer and the related dangers that they may pose. Project SENSOR will achieve this goal by examining three foundational issues in the philosophy of perception of sensory engineering: the nature of (1) illusion and hallucination, (2) direct and indirect perception, and (3) perceptual knowledge and epistemic risks in cases of sensory engineering. 

The SENSOR consortium has been funded by a joint DFG/AHRC-grant and brings together a team from the Centre for the Study of Perceptual Experience, University of Glasgow (Derek Brown, Jack Lyons, Fiona Macpherson) with researchers from the Centre for Philosophy and AI Research, FAU Erlangen (Sascha Benjamin Fink + this advertised position). Several joint meetings and coordinated events of these groups are planned.

– Research Environment 
The Centre for Philosophy and AI Research (PAIR) was founded in 2022 with support from a prestigious Alexander von Humboldt Professorship for Vincent C. Müller at the Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU, est. 1743). In addition to the AvH Foundation, PAIR is funded by the University, and 3rd party research funding. Our vision is to help set the agenda in the philosophy and ethics of AI, through publications, events, structures, and visible activities. This research will generate intellectual progress that can have a deep impact towards a better society. Our work involves excellent people with a background in philosophy, cognitive sciences, neurosciences, social sciences and computer sciences. We offer an international, stimulating, supportive and pleasant research environment – situated in a lively and modern workplace in the centre of beautiful Erlangen. The working language at PAIR is English.

PAIR currently has 13 members: The director (Vincent C. Müller), a director of research (Sascha Benjamin Fink), 4 post-doc research fellows, 4 PhD students, 2 post-docs associated with funded projects (BMBF-PsychedELSI and DFG-PhiMiSci), 1 admin, visiting fellows, and affiliated FAU faculty. 

For more information, visit https://www.pair.fau.eu

Beyond PAIR, the postdoc will cooperate with the SENSOR group in Glasgow during regular meetings.

– Tasks
The major focus of this position (75%) will be research on the topics of project SENSOR (see link below). What matters to us is your contribution to intellectual progress in SENSOR-related research, plus contributions to the team overall. Academic excellence is assumed, as are teamwork, an international outlook, and fluent English. 

A minor part (25%) will be helping Sascha Benjamin Fink with managerial tasks, e.g. organising project SENSOR, coordinating with the Glasgow team and DFG, organising workshops and conferences, and supporting Fink's work at PAIR. As most administration works in German, proficiency in German is considered a plus, but is not mandatory.

There are no teaching duties associated with this position. The post-doc is expected to be mostly working on-site at PAIR in Erlangen.

– Benefits 
Salary at level TV-L E13, full-time (currently ca. €50-73000/year, before tax, depending on experience). The employment includes social security benefits, health insurance (1/2 employer, 1/2 employee), pension, sick pay, etc. There is funding for travel to conferences and for the organisation of events.

Starting date: 01.08.2024 (negotiable)

The appointment is initially for 33 months. Employment beyond that will depend on the funding situation by then. Part-time employment is a possibility if needed to allow family-care. 

Everyone deserves to feel at home at our university. In its pursuit of academic excellence, FAU is committed to equality of opportunity and to a proactive and inclusive approach, which supports and encourages all under-represented groups, promotes an inclusive culture and values diversity. FAU is a family-friendly employer.

– Requirements
PhD in a relevant field, ideally by the time of appointment. A track record of work in the philosophy of perception, philosophy of psychedelics, epistemic risks or philosophy of AI is desirable.

We do not require that applicants already have a visa & work permit for the EU/Germany.

– Procedure
Applications via e-mail to [email protected], with subject line "SENSOR", with a single PDF that includes:
• A motivation letter (max. 2 pages) 

• CV (with publications, if applicable)

• Writing sample of what the candidate considers their best work

• Contact information for 2 references

The postdoc will work in a 4-year project funded by the Leverhulme Trust, starting on 1st January 2025, and entitled ‘What if…? Knowing by imagining (WIKI). The Logic and Rationality of Imagination’. This will be a four-year, full time research job.

Here follows a short description of the WIKI project:

‘What if?'-counterfactual questions are of momentous importance for scientific explanations (‘Would we see that particle track if the atom was ionized?’), to ascertain responsibilities (‘Would he have hit the brakes, had he not been distracted?’), to choose what to do (‘Would I get to the other side if I jumped the stream?’). We address them by imagining that a hypothetical situation obtains and wondering what would follow. But how can imagination give us knowledge of reality, if it's free departure from reality?

WIKI will apply in the philosophy of imagination tools from formal epistemology, in particular epistemic and probabilistic logic, to address this issue. If we start by taking counterfactual imagination as a kind of simulated belief revision, we can then analyze it using formal theories of belief revision, in qualitative (focusing on full, all-or-nothing belief) and quantitative clothing (focusing on credences/degrees of belief). In three interrelated subprojects, WIKI will (1) develop a logic and formal epistemology of imagination as suppositional thinking, (2) apply them to analyse the workings of scientific thought experiments, and (3) compare them to empirical results from the psychology of reasoning, to provide an account of how we can become better hypothetical reasoners.

The post is available for 48 months starting on 1st January 2025.

Employees of the University have access to a wide range of staff benefits including:

• Annual leave of 34 days, plus 5 public holidays
• Membership of the USS Pension Scheme with generous employer contributions

Visiting Assistant Professor and Faculty Fellow in Native and Indigenous Studies

Hamilton College invites applications for a two-year visiting faculty fellow in Native and Indigenous Studies with the possibility of a one-year extension, beginning July 1, 2024. We welcome applications from early career candidates who will have a PhD, MFA, or other terminal degree in hand by the start date of the appointment. Hamilton College places the highest value on undergraduate teaching; consequently, we seek teacher-scholars who can demonstrate a capacity in their supporting materials for excellent teaching and who have a commitment to working effectively with a student population that is broadly diverse with regard to gender, race, ethnicity, nationality, sexual orientation, and religion. We encourage and welcome applications from members of groups traditionally underrepresented in the faculties of higher education institutions.

This position requires vision, initiative, and a desire to join a Hamilton community eager to incorporate Native and Indigenous issues throughout the curriculum and to build a Native and Indigenous Studies program. This initiative will draw curricular and thematic connections across departments, areas, and faculty and enhance the presence of Native and Indigenous Studies on campus, and provide more formal connections between faculty and the Wellin Museum of Art where several exhibits in the past 10 years have focused on the relationship of Indigenous Studies within a liberal arts education.  Equally important, the initiative also aspires to develop and strengthen the relationship between the College, the Oneida Indian Nation, and the Haudenosaunee Confederacy through shared programing and community connections.

Through the various activities of this fellowship and with the creation of a Native and Indigenous Studies program, our hope is that Hamilton students will be able to: identify the relationship between colonial and decolonized approaches to knowledge creation and understanding; critically analyze materials and their contexts to draw connections between the past, present, and future; identify disciplinary practice and the creation of social, structural, and institutional hierarchies; and be able to conduct their own interdisciplinary research with a focus on Native and Indigenous lifeways.

Fellowship Terms

The salary range for this position will be $74,400-76,900 plus $5,000 per year for research expenses in addition to at least one conference trip. The College also provides health insurance benefits, relocation subsidy and college housing eligibility, and academic support including office space and a computer.

During the period of residence at Hamilton, in collaboration with each other, fellows will propose, develop, and each offer three courses per academic year. The visiting faculty fellows will also undertake initiative-related work, which includes:

(i) work with the initiative to create programming and bring speakers to campus,

(ii) help organize a symposium and campus-wide events,

(iii) participate in campus discussions to build a Native and Indigenous Studies program,

(iv) collaborate in foundation grant writing to support the initiative as appropriate

(v) work with other departments or the Wellin Museum of Art to create curricula or courses that support Native and Indigenous Studies

(vi) guest teach or guest lecture in courses as needed/requested

(vii) work on collaborative projects between the Oneida Indian Nation and the College when appropriate to their field of expertise

Qualifications

We seek candidates whose work engages with any one or more of the following thematic areas, particularly in ways centered in the American Northeast and/or the region’s hemispheric and global connections.

■ Cultural Expression and Performance: oral history, communication, and transmitting generational knowledge as performing or studio arts. Areas of emphasis could include literature, creative writing, visual studies, art history, dance, theater, studio art, and/or music, with a focus on communicating generational knowledge within and between Indigenous Peoples, and with external audiences.

■ Environmental Indigenous Studies: climate change, environmental ethics, political action, ethnobotany, climate justice, and tribal governance.

■ Identity and Indigenous Traditions: gender, sexuality, and feminism, ethics, critical sovereignty, and queer theory.

■ Indigeneity and Policy: Federal Law and Policy, land acknowledgement and representation, Indigenous histories and philosophies, and Institutional and Social Geography in the study of place.

■ Indigenous Health: traditional medicine, population-specific vulnerabilities (addiction, diabetes), healthcare discrepancies, mental health, spirituality, conceptualizations of the mind.

■ Indigenous Ways of Knowing: Placemaking and local knowledge, metaphysics, intersection of indigenous knowledge and scientific understandings, museums, heritage display, curatorial practice, and material culture studies.

■ Languages: Native North American language and communicative norms as well as global indigenous cultural and language revitalization efforts: Indigenous Language Revitalization, Indigenous Oral Traditions, Indigenous Cultural Revitalization Movements.

The Harvard Program for Embedded EthiCS invites applications for one or more fellowships based in the Philosophy Department beginning July 1, 2024, pending funding and program needs. The fellowships will be for a maximum of three years, with the second and third years contingent on program funding and a yearly satisfactory review. The postdoctoral fellows will be expected to spend 50% of their time working with the Embedded EthiCS program (including teaching, mentoring, and engagement activities) and 50% of their time on their own independent research. 

Harvard’s Embedded EthiCS is a collaborative, multidisciplinary pedagogical program that embeds the teaching of ethics directly into the computer science curriculum by creating and teaching ethics modules for courses across the CS curriculum. For details about this exciting program, please see ourwebsite. The postdoctoral fellows will have responsibility for: 

• teaching modules in the program, 

• participating in a Teaching Lab that develops ethics modules, 

• coaching less experienced Fellows or Teaching Assistants, 

• advising an undergraduate senior thesis related to the fellows’ areas of expertise, 

• participating in engagement activities with other programs around Harvard and the greater Boston area, and 

• serving as liaison with other groups developing computing ethics education programs around the globe. 

The fellows will have a faculty advisor in the Department of Philosophy and are encouraged to participate in the full range of Department activities. The fellows are also encouraged to participate in the many efforts at Harvard to address the social impact of technology through our program’s ties with Harvard’s Center for Research in Computation and Society; Harvard’s Edmond and Lily Safra Center for Ethics; and Harvard’s Berkman Klein Center for Internet and Society (among many others). 

We seek applicants who are enthusiastic about working with computer scientists to develop ethics modules for their courses and who are passionate about building a more ethical and responsible computing ecosystem. They need not have computer science experience themselves, but they should be eager to engage with computer science experts, even if that requires engaging with technical material. They must demonstrate competence to teach ethics, but ethics need not be their area of specialization. Successful candidates will have significant teaching experience, ideally including experience with cross-disciplinary research or teaching, and enthusiasm about developing ethics pedagogy. 

Applicants must have completed all the requirements for a doctorate in Philosophy or related discipline by June 30, 2024. The term of the fellowship is July 1, 2024-June 30, 2025, with the possibility of renewal (see above).

We strongly encourage applications from women and underrepresented groups, as well as others who would bring additional dimensions to the university's research and teaching missions. Salary is extremely competitive. 

Please submit the following materials by January 7, 2024

• Cover letter stating your background and interest in the Embedded EthiCS program

• CV 

• Teaching statement

• Teaching portfolio (teaching chart listing courses taught in reverse chronological order; representative syllabi; teaching evaluations, ideally accompanied by a chart or table summarizing the quantitative data on main questions; list of undergraduates for whom you have been primary advisor, if applicable)

• Research statement 

• Recent writing sample (no more than 10,000 words) 

• Names and contact information of three referees, who will be asked by a system-generated email to upload a letter of recommendation once the candidate’s application has been submitted. Three letters of recommendation are required, and the application is considered complete only when at least three letters have been received. Please notify your referees to expect a request for their letter of recommendation.
