UiB - Knowledge that shapes society

At the Faculty of Law, there is a vacancy for a postdoctoral research fellow position within intellectual property law and artificial intelligence.

The position is a fixed-term contract. The duration of the position is 3 years. If the successful applicant is qualified for teaching compulsory courses in the master's program at the Faculty of Law, the position may be extended to 4 years for career promoting activities with emphasis on teaching.

About the host research group and the research topic

The advent of more sophisticated artificial intelligence is transforming how intellectual creations are conceived, produced, and disseminated, raising complex legal issues such as rights to AI-assisted and AI-generated works.

The postdoctoral fellow is encouraged to develop a project that significantly advances the doctrinal framework and evolution of the intersection between intellectual property law and artificial intelligence.
