About this position

PhD Candidate in Biological-inspired AI-approaches for mitigating the spread of misinformation at Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) in Norway.

This PhD project focuses on developing biological-inspired artificial intelligence approaches to help mitigate the spread of misinformation. The topic sits at the intersection of AI, machine learning, information diffusion, and the analysis of online/social systems, with strong relevance to computational social science and communication research.

The position is offered by NTNU, one of Norway’s leading research universities, and is suitable for candidates interested in designing novel algorithms and data-driven methods for understanding and reducing harmful information cascades. A strong background in computer science or a closely related quantitative field would be especially relevant for the research direction implied by the title.

Key research themes likely include bio-inspired AI, graph-based learning, misinformation detection, social network analysis, robustness, and computational modeling of spread dynamics. The project is especially attractive to applicants wanting to combine AI innovation with societal impact.

Application deadline: 2026-11-13. Interested candidates should apply via the Jobbnorge application link and consult the official posting for any document checklist or formal application instructions.
