[emcai] Fwd: Job annoucement - EMCA postdoc

[Jakub Mlynář]

Dear all,

I will soon be hiring two postdocs and one research assistant to join my
new four-year project funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation. The
research is grounded in ethnomethodology and conversation analysis and will
involve in-depth (video-)ethnographic work in medical and educational
settings in the French-speaking part of Switzerland (hence some language
requirements), focusing on the integration of AI into image-based
personalized medicine.

You can find more details below and in the attached documents. The deadline
for applications is 31 December 2025 (the online system will open on 10
December). The official starting date of the project is 1 March 2026. For
any inquiries, please feel free to contact me directly.

Of course, if you know about someone who might be interested and is not on
the EMCA-AI mailing list, thanks for forwarding this email to them.

Best wishes,
Jakub
