CIGIDEN is a cross-disciplinary research initiative aimed to mitigate the tremendous and complex impact of natural disasters in the society, considering the physical infrastructure, the human stock, and the economic development. The Center takes advantage of Chile as one of the most active natural seismic and geo-hazard laboratories in the world. Faculty members working at CIGIDEN include people from different areas of Civil Engineering, Psychology, Sociology, Urban Studies and Geography […]

We are seeking a Post Doctoral Researcher to join an international project on the development of methods for analysis and visualization of ‘big data’ from computational agent-based models (ABMs) of coupled human-natural systems. This vacancy is part of a multidisciplinary multinational MIRACLE project (MIning Relationships Among variables in large datasets from CompLEx systems). MIRACLE is a joint project between the Center for Social Dynamics & Complexity at the Arizona State University […]

Postdoc position in spatial structure (Req #140062) The Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at Princeton University invites applications for a post-doctoral position to work with Professors Corina Tarnita and Simon Levin on projects with special focus on spatial structure and its effects. The three main directions of research include but are not restricted to: (i) the effects of spatial patterning (e.g., as induced by self organization of social insect nests) on ecosystems and […]

AVAILABLE POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCH ASSOCIATE POSITION NETWORK MODELING OF HOUSEHOLD SOLAR ENERGY ADOPTION UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA Dr. Adam Henry, Assistant Professor in the School of Government and Public Policy at the University of Arizona, will be hiring a postdoctoral research associate to work on a project funded by the Department of Energy to apply computational, agent-based network models to understand the adoption of residential solar energy in major U.S. solar markets. Applicants should […]

The SMAC Team of the IRIT lab (Institut de Recherche en Informatique de Toulouse) invites applications for a one-year postdoctoral fellowship in the EmoTES project funded by the ANR. The aim of the EmoTES project is to study a specific class of emotions, so-called “strategic emotions”, namely those emotions such as guilt, remorse… which arise in the context of strategic interaction (that is, when an agent’s utility of a given choice also depends on other agents’ behaviors). The main goal […]

The Environmental Studies Program at Dartmouth College is seeking a postdoctoral researcher for a two year position working on agent based modeling of consumer behavior. In particular, the project examines the aggregate impacts of bounded rationality and social norms on demand for consumer goods.
