The research of the post-doc will be focusing at the modeling of human behaviour in selected cases of local social innovation (projects at neighborhood level). The HUMAT framework, developed in an earlier project (SMARTEES, see https://local-social-innovation.eu) will be used as architecture for developing a simulated population for selected cases. Empirical data will have to be collected and implemented to construct a valid and representative population. Simulation runs will produce differ[…]

Job Opportunity - Netlogo developer

The primary duties of the position will consist of working collaboratively to maintain and improve complex agent-based simulation models of human behavior in NetLogo. This will include general model improvements of existing models, designing and coding new model components, and research and experimentation with these models.

The Centre for Health Economics (CHE) at the University of York is seeking to appoint a Research Fellow (Grade 6) to conduct microsimulation and economic evaluation of the long-term health and wellbeing impacts of childhood policies, on a full-time open contract (part-time applications will also be considered with a minimum of 0.8 FTE).

This is an ideal opportunity for an ambitious postgraduate interested in using economics and data science to help improve human health and wellbeing and r[…]

This PhD represents an exciting opportunity to develop cutting edge methods of agent-based model building and analysis on a socially relevant topic. You will be expected to translate theoretical mechanisms of economic inequality and segregation into programmable rules of actions for agents within an agent-based model. You will implement these mechanisms and integrate them[…]

We are looking for someone who can develop an area of work using agent-based models to explore circular economy scenarios, and who is interested in developing and delivering training courses on agent-based modelling. You will be contributing to Scottish Government-funded work on the Circular Economy and Large-Scale Modelling, working in interdisciplinary project teams to deliver policy-relevant insights. A systems thinker, you will have a passion for using your agent-based mo[…]

An opportunity is available for a fully funded PhD position to work on a project that aims to analyze how global and local connections and networks impact the spread of an infectious disease. The project will combine a number of methodologies such as network analysis, agent-based modelling, machine learning, and mathematical modelling.

Are you a modeller who wants to contribute to the circular economy for the management of bio-waste at the territorial level? And do you want to innovate how to simulate socio-technical changes? Then apply to this unique position at Inrae, Laboratory of Engineering for Complex Systems (LISC)

The LISC (Inrae) is looking for a PhD candidate in modelling on biowaste management and circular economy. The candidate will be appointed for 3-years to research how to better understand and accelerate […]
