Offer Description

FUNGATERIA is organized in seven teams collaborating across European universities. The team
based at the University of Oslo coordinates WP7 - ELM Futures. WP-7 develops a citizen science
methodology to explore public issues, sensibilities and future projections of living materials,
particularly ELMs. The announced researcher position will collaborate with the Oslo WP-7 ELM
Futures team to design and produce prototypes using critical, speculative and participatory
methodologies from STS, design and art.

The researcher position (post-doctoral level) will be affiliated with the TIK Centre’s research group
“Science, Technology and Culture” which carries out STS oriented research on science and
technology as cultural and material practices that are shaped by society and crucial in the production
of social and political reality. This research group is focused on understanding relationships and
tensions between various forms of scientific and technological knowledge/expertise, the ways in
which scientific knowledge is used in politics, and the dynamics of technoscientific controversies
related to nature and culture. Research within the group uses historical and contemporary source
material, as well as interdisciplinary methods and analytical resources. This includes an interest in
developing participatory, inventive and design-oriented methodologies. Applicants should have a
strong interest in and competence for contributing to the development of such research areas.
