UCD Post-doctoral Research Fellow Level 1, School of Agriculture and Food Science, Until 30 September 2027

Applications are invited for a temporary post of a UCD Post-doctoral Research Fellow Level 1 within School of Agriculture and Food Science.

Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral Researcher to join the Harm2Healing project, funded by Research Ireland under the COALESCE Strand 2A. The objective of the Harm2Healing Project is to help transform survivor-centred gender-based violence (GBV) response in humanitarian settings by leveraging a human-centred AI approach.

In environments where service demand far outstrips supply, caseworkers face chronic resource shortages and complex referral pathways. This initiative will develop a reliable, scalable, and agent-based simulation model that will support caseworkers in developing their care-plans for survivors. By analysing data and simulating constraints, the tool will provide a comprehensive "board of options" to optimize the choice architecture for survivors, fostering their agency and informed decision-making.

Post Doc 1 Salary: €47,237 per annum

Appointment on the above range will be dependent upon qualifications and experience.

Closing date: 12:00 noon (local Irish time) on 5th August 2026.

Applications must be submitted by the closing date and time specified. Any applications which are still in progress at the closing time of 12:00 noon (Local Irish Time) on the specified closing date will be cancelled automatically by the system. UCD are unable to accept late applications.

UCD do not require assistance from Recruitment Agencies. Any CV's submitted by Recruitment Agencies will be returned.

The PD1 position is intended for early stage researchers, either just after completion of a PhD or for someone entering a new area for the first time. If you have already completed your PD1 stage in UCD or will soon complete a PD1, or you are an external applicant whose total Postdoctoral experience, inclusive of the duration of the advertised post, would exceed 4 years, you should not apply and should refer to PD2 posts instead.
