About the position

The Department of Literature, Area Studies and European Languages (ILOS) at the University of Oslo is announcing a Doctoral Research Fellowship (SKO 1017) affiliated with the research project NxtGenFake. The project examines how generative artificial intelligence (AI), particularly large language models, affects the production, dissemination, and understanding of digital content that may challenge democratic values and public trust.

More about the NxtGenFake project and the position 

The NxtGenFake project, funded by the Norwegian Research Council, investigates how large language models shape political narratives and strategic communication in digital environments. The project focuses on so-called disinformation narratives, meaning narratives of a misleading or inaccurate nature. Large language models enable the production of synthetic content at scale, potentially flooding information ecosystems with text that is difficult to distinguish from human-generated material. At the same time, large language models are increasingly being used for information retrieval, which may amplify the spread of biased or inaccurate representations.

A particular focus of the project is how such models—trained on large datasets including social media—may reproduce disinformation narratives from actors such as Russia and China, and influence public opinion in democratic societies, including Norway. The project analyzes how these disinformation narratives emerge, spread, and affect public discourse.

We are now seeking a motivated and skilled Doctoral Research Fellow to contribute to the NxtGenFake project, preferably with experience in handling and analyzing large datasets, and a willingness to collaborate interdisciplinarily with other project participants in studies and publications. 

Applicants are required to upload/attach a research proposal (hf.uio.no) stating research questions and theoretical and methodological approaches. 

The person appointed will be affiliated with the faculty’s organized research training. The academic work is to result in a doctoral thesis that will be defended at the faculty with a view to obtaining the degree of PhD. The successful candidate will be part of the NxtGenFake project and contribute to its development. Read more about the Doctoral degree: PhD in the Humanities (hf.uio.no). 

The appointment is for a duration of 3 years. All PhD Candidates who submit their doctoral dissertation for assessment with a written recommendation from their supervisor within 3 years or 3 ½ years after the start of their PhD position, will be offered, respectively, a 12 or 6 month Completion Grant (hf.uio.no).

Responsibilities

• Conduct empirical and theoretical research on generative AI, disinformation, and political communication in line with the objectives of the NxtGenFake project
• Analyze disinformation narratives in AI-generated content and social media

About the position 

One PhD Research Fellowship (SKO 1017) in Science & Technology Studies (STS) is available at TIK Centre for Technology, Innovation and Culture at the University of Oslo (UiO) from August 2026. 

Candidates are invited to apply for a three-year PhD Research Fellowship associated with the DataMines project (Governing data infrastructure and clouds in digitally mediated natural resource extraction and exploitation). 

The position is for three years, with the possibility of extension for teaching activities.

The successful PhD candidate will define and carry out an individual subproject on the politics of bioprospecting in Norway, with a focus on legal and scientific practices. More information about the project is available in the project’s website and upon request ana.delgado@tik.uio.no

About the DataMines Project

DataMines combines approaches from STS, critical data studies and political ecology, and develops “track and tracing” ethnographic methods to follow the flow of genetic resources across land, oceans, jurisdictions, and global databases. It builds on a collaboration between the University of Oslo, Fridtjof Nansens Institute and the University College London, and it brings together an interdisciplinary team of international scholars in Europe and Brazil. The project is led by Associate Professor Ana Delgado.

Biodiversity loss is a main global challenge. DataMines addresses it by studying how genetic resources are digitalized and increasingly stored in and retrieved from databases, often as open data. The project analyses the challenges that turning biodiversity into data poses for biodiversity governance. It focuses on bioprospecting, i.e. the search for commercially interesting forms of biochemistry nature. Using an ethnographic approach it follows specific forms of biodiversity (plants and microbes) in Brazil and Norway. 

The digital shift in bioprospecting poses several challenges to existing regulatory mechanisms for the fair access and use of genetic resources. Genetic data on critical biodiversity resources accumulate in databases in the Global North, even when that data has been collected from organisms and microorganisms in megadiverse countries in the Global South. 

The digitalization of bioprospecting, including the use of AI and datamining software to search for interesting sequences in databases, has opened up a new round of global controversies on genetic-resource extraction and exploitation, including what indigenous and activist groups see as a new form of digital biopiracy. A key problem is that regulatory and legal mechanisms are missing to regulate the flow of data, and to govern databases. 

How does the governance of resource extractions change when the site of extraction is not only physical sites existing within national jurisdictions, but when resources also exist as data in databases and clouds? The project DataMines addresses this question, to produce theoretical and empirical knowledge that can be used to inform better policies, towards contributing to data sovereignty and environmental justice.
