A previous postdoctoral position is desirable but not essential. Research projects may concern any culture or historical period (including the present). Although projects must have a history of science component, both the human and natural sciences are included under that rubric and additional relevant disciplinary perspectives are welcome. Research projects within the following three main areas are especially encouraged: - Archival technologies and the development of datapower since the 17th Century - Scientific archives with superhuman timescales (e.g. astronomy, geology, paleoanthropology) - Scientific archives and issues of endangerment and extinction. The Max Planck Institute for the History of Science is an international and interdisciplinary research institute. The colloquium language is English; it is expected that candidates will be able to present their own work and discuss that of others fluently in that language. Applications may however be submitted in German, English, or French. The position is primarily devoted to research, with no teaching and minimal administrative duties. It is ranked at the BAT IIA level in the German system, which roughly corresponds to that of Lecturer in Britain, Assistant Professor in North America, and Maître de conférences in France. Salary is set by both the position’s rank and individual factors; please address specific questions to Ms. Claudia Paass ( Esta dirección electrónica esta protegida contra spam bots.

Candidates are requested to submit a curriculum vitae (including list of publications), a research proposal on a topic related to the project (750 words maximum), and names and addresses (preferably including email) of three referees who may be contacted and asked to submit letters if the candidate is among the finalists for the position. (Electronic submission is also possible: Esta dirección electrónica esta protegida contra spam bots. Necesita activar JavaScript para visualizarla ) by 15 December 2009. Finalists for the position will be informed by January 15, 2010 and asked to come for an interview during the week of 25 January 2010 (travel expenses covered by the Institute). For questions concerning the research project and Department II, please contact Dr. Fernando Vidal ( Esta dirección electrónica esta protegida contra spam bots.

The Max Planck Society is committed to employing more handicapped individuals and encourages them to apply. Source: STSGRAD Fellowship at Institute for Advanced Studies on Science, Technology and Society The IAS-STS in Graz, Austria, promotes the interdisciplinary investigation of the links and interactions between science, technology and society as well as technology assessment and research into the development and implementation of socially and environmentally sound technologies. The IAS-STS is broadly speaking, an institute for the enhancement of science and technology studies. The IAS-STS invites researchers to apply for a stay between 1 October 2010 and 30 June 2011 as a - Research Fellow (up to nine months) or as a - Visiting Scholar (shorter period, e.g. a month) The IAS-STS offers excellent research infrastructure. Close co-operation with researchers at the IFZ (Inter-University Research Centre for Technology, Work and Culture; see: www.ifz.tugraz.at), guest lectures, workshops and conferences provide an atmosphere of creativity and scholarly discussion. Furthermore we can offer five grants (up to EUR 1,000 per month) for long-term Research Fellows at the IAS-STS. The Fellowship Programme 2010-2011 is dedicated to projects investigating the following issues: 1. Gender – Technology – Environment Women with their various interests, competencies and potentials play an important part in the process of shaping socially sound and environmentally friendly sustainable technologies – as users and consumers or experts. Applications should focus on research in the field of women in traditionally male fields of engineering, on ways of creating cultures of success for women engineers (students, graduates), and on masculinity and the culture of engineering. 2. Genetics and Biotechnology A focus of the Fellowship Programme lies on research providing a critical analysis either of human genetics or of biotechnology. Researchers investigating either ethical, legal and social aspects of genetic testing in the medical domain or risk and wider governance issues related to agricultural biotechnology are especially encouraged to apply. 3. Sustainable Consumption and Production (SCP) SCP seeks to promote social and economic development within the carrying capacity of ecosystems. New strategies and concrete tools are needed to change individual and institutional patterns of consumption and to enhance corporate responsibility (CR) of organisations. Researchers investigating patterns of consumption and intervention strategies to promote sustainable lifestyles among both public and private consumers or working within the thematic field of ecological product policy are encouraged to apply. Research projects integrating product assessment tools such as LCA, carbon footprint, MIPS or related methods are also of special interest. 4. Energy and Climate Projects in this field should aim at socio-economic aspects of environmental technologies or at strategies of environmental technology policy, such as user participation or strategic niche management. They should develop measures and strategies for the promotion of renewable energy sources and for the transition to a sustainable energy system. Regional governance, climate policy strategies, innovation policy and the role of users in the area of energy technologies play an important role. In addition, the Manfred Heindler Grant is awarded for research projects on the increased use of renewable energies and on a more efficient use of energy. 5. Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) A focus of the Fellowship Programme will be put on novel ICT-related developments from an STS point of view. Topics like ICTs and agency, ubiquitous computing or ICTs and mobility are analysed with respect to their wider social and political implications. Further issues of interest are the social shaping of ICT developments, innovation policies, risk management and participatory approaches to the design of ICT systems and applications. Applications must be submitted to the IAS-STS by 31 December 2009.
