Dear AoIR,

I'm beginning a new project intended to bring a humanities-led, 
interdisciplinary perspective to studies of AI and data ethics. This 
project is part of a collaboration between The Ada Lovelace Institute - 
https://www.adalovelaceinstitute.org/ - (Ada) and the UK Arts & 
Humanities Research Council.

I'm hiring a postdoc (or experienced, non-PhD track researcher) for an 
initial 13-month term (starting April 2020) to work between the LSE 
Department of Media and Communication and Ada. This post will help 
create this network, by:

• framing a creative, humanities-led perspective on AI and data ethics, 
particularly through translation across disciplines and between 
research, practice and policy • building up a repository of research • 
convening workshops and events • mapping and managing relationships 
between researchers and practitioners, and contributing themselves to 
creative, critical and novel research on data and AI ethics.

It will involve writing, convening, commissioning and creating.

Please get in touch if you have questions - and share widely.

Best

Alison.
