4-5 positions), to work principally under the ERC
Consolidator grant “Socsemics” on internet echo chambers and
polarization. These offers take place in an
interdisciplinary context and touch a variety of domains,
including computational social science, political science,
NLP, information visualization, sociology of the internet,
social network analysis and complex network modeling.
Extensive information on the scientific content

to discuss this further.
A further forthcoming ANR grant called “Records”
on the effect of algorithms on music listening practices
will enable the recruitment of one doctoral student (most
likely in computer science) over the course of the year: the
corrresponding offer should be published before winter 2020,
to aim for a recruitment by summer 2020 – prospective
applicants may nonetheless already get in touch.
