Dear List Members,

The ERC-funded project “Network Epistemology in Practice” (NEPI) is
seeking a research assistant in the Digital Humanities with a strong
interest in the history, philosophy, and/or sociology of science. NEPI
investigates digital communication within the ATLAS collaboration at
CERN, one of the world’s largest experiments in particle physics.The
project aims to uncover how knowledge is generated in large scientific
collaborations by applying methods from social network analysis, large
language models (LLMs), and knowledge graph technologies. As part of a
small, supportive research team, you’ll have the opportunity to shape
your own research profile while contributing to an ambitious
interdisciplinary project.

Please note that the application deadline is fast approaching: October
13, 2025. Interviews with short-listed candidates are expected to take
place between October 27 and October 30 (either on-site or online).

The position can be filled at the earliest possible date and is funded
full-time until the end of the NEPI project (Dec. 31, 2027).
Continuation in follow-up projects is envisioned. Part-time employment
may be possible.

For application instructions and job details, please refer to the full
and official announcement at
https://www.jobs.tu-berlin.de/en/job-postings/197644

Further information on the department, team and NEPI project is
available at https://www.tu.berlin/en/hps-mod-sci.

In case you have questions, please feel free to reach out to Adrian
Wüthrich (adrian.wuethrich@tu-berlin.de), the PI of the project, or to
members of the project team.

Further dissemination to potential candidates would be greatly appreciated!
