(experimental; Cornell)
3: Opening in the CSS of open source governance and networks
(observational; UC Davis)
=== Positions 1 & 2 ===
Two postdocs in computational collective behavior/cognitive
science
We are recruiting two postdocs for an interdisciplinary NSF-funded
project in computational collective behavior and cognitive
science. The goal of the research is to discover how collectives
can be made more creative, intelligent and when they can select
the rules governing their interactions. The focus of the positions
is on designing and running large-scale online behavioral
experiments.
Strong applicants will have quantitative and computational
training in behavioral, cognitive, social science, or
computer/information science. We will recruit one postdoc at UC
Davis and one at Cornell. The positions will remain open until
filled, starting likely in August 2025, potentially sooner.
Potential applicants should feel comfortable contacting Seth Frey
(
sethfrey@ucdavis.edu) and Nori Jacoby (
kj338@cornell.edu)
directly with questions about the opening, including its current
status.

Postdoc opening in the CSS of open source governance and networks
We are seeking a postdoctoral computational social scientits. This
NSF-funded project is focused on the governance and organization
of sustainable open source software projects. The call welcomes
computationally trained social scientists or socially inflected
computer/data/information scientists to work with a team including
CSS, political science, policy analysis, and software engineering
scholars. We have three years of data and tools for a creative,
motivated, and talented scholars to play with.
The position is at UC Davis with Seth Frey in Communication and
