Offer Description

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 position is connected to the Research Group for Information and Innovation Law. The research group investigates the legal regulation of information and innovation in modern society, including intellectual property, personal data protection, and data regulation.

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.

  • Research proposal (5 pages, using a template based on the evaluation criteria).
  • A CV detailing your full scientific track record.
  • Mobility declaration with supporting documentation.
  • Table of potential ethics and security issues that might apply to the research proposal.
