JOB 2020 : Postdocs/Research Scientists in Digital and Computational Demography

Examples of areas relevant for the Lab include (but are not limited to):

1. Combining traditional data sources as well as those that emerge from the digitalization of our lives to study demographic processes, like migration, health and well-being, intergenerational relationships and gender disparities.

2. Developing innovative forms of data collection for demographic research (e.g., surveys via web and social media advertisement platforms, or data collected via sensors, tracking devices, mobile phone apps, or crowd-sourced approaches).

3. Developing simulation models of individual choices and population-level processes to produce new insights on demographic dynamics and advance population theory.

4. Evaluating the impact of the digitalization of our lives on demographic behavior, well-being and population processes.

5. Modeling, estimating and predicting the relationships between environmental change, demographic processes and disease dynamics.
