A position as Doctoral (PhD) Research Fellow in Law is available at the Norwegian Research Center for Computers and Law  (NRCCL) at the Faculty of Law  at the University of Oslo, tentatively starting January 2023. The period of appointment runs for three years without teaching duties, or four years with teaching duties constituting 25% of the overall workload. A four-year fellowship requires that the candidate can contribute to the current teaching needs of the Faculty of Law. 

The successful Doctoral Research Fellow will participate in an interdisciplinary research collaboration between Oslo University Hospital and three faculties at the University of Oslo on the research project Responsible Explainable Machine Learning for Sleep-related Respiratory Disorders (RESPIRE) . The position is funded by the Research Council of Norway.

The objective of the overarching project is to address the opportunities and risks that arise in the social-technological context of using Machine Learning (ML) in the health domain.

With novel low-cost health monitoring solutions and explainable ML (xML) the project aims to:

(1) improve the diagnostic process of sleep-related respiratory disorders,

(2) enable long-term monitoring of patients, and

(3) gain new knowledge concerning these disorders and personalized treatment. 

Part of the project will elaborate and establish ethical, legal, and technological guidelines and an explainability framework to enable the systematic development and evaluation of responsible xML for sleep-related disorders.
