The posting

The IT University of Copenhagen invites highly motivated individuals to apply for a Postdoc position starting in January or soon thereafter.

We invite applicants who want to contribute to the IT University's vision of creating and sharing knowledge that is profound and leads to ground-breaking information technology and services for the benefit of humanity.

**Job Description

**The postdoc will work with the Horizon-funded FEMVision project, which targets online visual misogyny. The project studies how misogyny circulates through images and memes in everyday digital spaces. The candidate will participate in the project's computational analysis, including fine-tuning and validating a multimodal large language model classifier for visual misogyny, benchmarked against expert human coders. Building on this classifier, the Postdoc will conduct semantic clustering of the visual corpus to map the iconographic and thematic repertoires of online misogyny, and analyze how users react to and negotiate misogynistic content across platforms.

The ideal candidate has experience with computational social science methods and has worked with using LLMs for complex data annotation and validation. Experience with social media data collection and working within the Meta Content Library is a plus.

You will work closely with Associate Professor Luca Rossi, PI at ITU.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
