<p>The Georgetown Initiative on Technology and Society is seeking a
Postdoctoral Fritz Research Fellow to conduct research in Washington, DC
in the emerging area of empirical approaches to legal interpretation
(see <a href="https://solid-symposium.github.io/2025/" target="_blank">https://solid-symposium.github.io/2025/</a> for examples of
interdisciplinary research in this space). We seek candidates with a
Ph.D. in Linguistics, Computer Science, Cognitive Science, or a related
field who bring expertise in linguistic and/or computational
methodologies that can apply to the study of legal interpretation. The
postdoc will lead collaborative research initiatives with deliverables
such as datasets, software, scholarly publications and public-facing
contributions. The position will be housed in the research group of
Prof. Nathan Schneider under the Departments of Computer Science and
Linguistics, with additional mentorship by Prof. Kevin Tobia (GU Law
Center); the fellow will be an active member of the intellectual life of
the lab, the Tech and Society community, and the broader university.
Synergistic professional development opportunities may include
co-mentorship of research students in the lab and co-development of
grant proposals.</p><p>Along with mentored research, this fellow will join a cohort of Fritz
Family Fellows ranging from undergraduate students through postdoctoral
fellows. Each fellow will be working on a different project co-designed
and mentored by faculty from at least two different parts of the
campus. Ultimately, the Fritz Family Fellowship aims to cultivate the
next generation of leaders with expertise in the social impacts of
technology, and build a network of public interest technologists who
learn from and support each other’s work.</p></span></div><font color="#888888"><br clear="all"><br></font></div></div><br clear="all"></div><br><span class="gmail_signature_prefix">-- </span><br><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><font color="#888888"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><span style="color:rgb(102,102,102)">Nathan Schneider<br></span></div><div><span style="color:rgb(102,102,102)">Associate Professor of Linguistics and Computer Science, Georgetown University</span><br></div><div><a href="http://nathan.cl" target="_blank">http://nathan.cl</a></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></font></div></div></div>
