Dear all:
The CaTalyST (Citizens Transforming Society: Tools for
Change) project will bring together a group of social scientists
(sociology; anthropology), computer scientists (mobile computing;
web2.0; distributed systems), management scientists (consumer behaviour)
and designers (innovation) to develop next generation systems that
empower citizens to create bottom-up innovative solutions to 'wicked'
societal problems. It will promote cross-disciplinary working across
Lancaster University (and beyond) between the School of Computing&
Communications, Sociology, Lancaster University Management School,
Lancaster Environment Centre, and Lancaster Institute for Contemporary
Arts.
There are 3 postdoc RA positions available on a new EPSRC-funded
multidisciplinary project (Catalyst) on new digital technologies for
citizen-led social innovation.
The three positions are available in:
--- New Technology Development:

--- Qualitative Methods:
http://hr-jobs.lancs.ac.uk/Vacancy.aspx?ref=A263
--- Quantitative Methods:
http://hr-jobs.lancs.ac.uk/Vacancy.aspx?ref=A261
The roles will involve developing new technology prototypes and
evaluating them 'in the wild' in collaboration with a number of
community groups and external partners.
Please could you pass on this information to anyone you know who might
be interested in applying. Deadline is Sep 2.
Thanks,
Jon
