Postdocs at Humlab

Why not spend an exotic year at Humlab in Umeå (North Sweden)? They are offering Postdocs. Unfortunately I am not qualified since I have a Swedish PhD.

You are expected to have a PhD degree in a humanities discipline from an international (non-Swedish) university. You may not have been employed by Umeå University or had a postdoctoral scholarship at the university. The intention is to have all postdoctoral positions affiliated both with HUMlab and an appropriate department at the Humanities faculty. We are looking for applicants with documented interest in any of the four research areas, and a willingness to engage with digital humanities more broadly. You need to have excellent written and oral proficiency in English. HUMlab is a lively and convivial studio space with a wide variety of activities, research, technologies and cross-disciplinary interaction. It is expected that you will contribute to such an environment and you also share our interest in working with traditional humanities disciplines and other related areas. Furthermore you will be expected to participate actively in any of the four research groups associated with the initiative. Therefore you will need to live in Umeå during the post doc period.

This would definately be an exotic experience doing research among the cool people up north.
