We are looking for a postdoctoral researcher in Complex Mobility Systems. The position is part of a Formas-funded project developing dynamic synthetic populations and mobility digital twins for resilient and equitable transport planning. The project combines agent-based modelling, large-scale mobility data, transport networks, generative modelling, resilience indicators, and equity analysis.   About us  The candidate will be based at https://www.chalmers.se/en/departments/env/research/frt/ at Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden. With around 50 staff members, including faculty and Doctoral students from engineering, natural sciences, and social sciences, the division promotes challenge-driven, multidisciplinary research and offers courses linked to its research areas. Our group, STEAM – Sustainable Transport, Energy Analytics and Modelling, studies how people, vehicles, infrastructure, digital systems and energy systems interact, with applications in sustainable mobility, electrification, resilience, equity and policy analysis. The successful candidate will be expected to contribute intellectually to the theoretical development of the project. We are particularly interested in candidates whose background can help us connect empirical mobility data and computational modelling with theories of complex systems, network dynamics, resilience, disruption response, adaptation, inequality, or urban systems. About the research project   The position is connected to the DYnamic populatioNs for resilient And equitable MObility systems (DYNAMO) project.
