Job description
Description
The University of Notre Dame invites applications for a cohort of outstanding Postdoctoral Research Fellows with deep expertise in quantitative data analysis, data science, and artificial intelligence (AI). These fellows will join a dynamic, interdisciplinary team working at the intersection of data innovation and sustainability science, aligned with the values and principles of integral ecology.
The research fellows will contribute to a new research project that is creating a Pan-Amazon Evidence and Action Hub for socio-economic and ecological flourishing in Amazonia. The hub will systematically synthesize and harmonize remote sensing, survey, census, and citizen science data to support analyses of issues for action in partnership with local communities and Indigenous Peoples in the Amazon region. Fellows will integrate and harmonize fragmented data from diverse sources into a coherent, usable form to support novel analyses that advance key sustainability goals. The work of the Hub will generate findings to support the design and adoption of interventions that respond to changing needs of the region and its people around climate change, energy, mining, soil and water contamination, food production and livelihoods.
The postdoctoral cohort will function as a central research skills hub, supporting and elevating the sustainability-related research efforts of faculty and students across Notre Dame. The fellows will help advance impactful, solution-oriented sustainability research that engages ecological, social, economic, and ethical dimensions in an integrated manner.
The postdoctoral fellows will assume the following key responsibilities:
This search is conducted with leadership from Notre Dame's Just Transformations to Sustainability Initiative and Data, AI, and Computing Initiative, both significant investments from the Provost's Office. The Just Transformations to Sustainability Initiative is Notre Dame's University-wide effort to build a sustainable future where people and nature flourish together. The Data, AI, and Computing Initiative's core aim is to advance purposeful data, AI, and computing - excelling in foundational research while catalyzing interdisciplinary collaboration and real-world translation to address pressing societal challenges.
This is a full-time position available with an initial appointment of one-year, renewable for an additional year on the basis of satisfactory performance and availability of funding.
