Job description
Do you want to quantify how movies shape gender and power? Join a short, focused postdoc to help finish a large-scale project mapping gender bias in film. You will turn a mature dataset and clear hypotheses into publishable results.

Join Us!
You will join an interdisciplinary team studying how creative teams in the film industry relate to on-screen portrayal of women and how viewers respond across time and cultures. The project is in an advanced stage: core data are assembled and analysis pipelines are underway. Working closely with the principal investigator and collaborators, you will complete the main analyses, stress-test robustness, and contribute to the writing of the paper.

What are you going to do

Run and refine analyses on existing datasets

Check robustness, document decisions, and prepare clear outputs for reuse

Contribute to writing a manuscript for submission to an international journal

Take part in lab meetings and research discussions

What do you have to offer

Must-have: You have completed a PhD in psychology, computational social science, or closely related field

Must-have: You can independently and confidently analyze quantitative data and you can write reproducible code (for example, in R or Python).

Good-to-have: You have worked with large-scale text data, natural language processing, or network-based analyses

What else do we offer you
You will work with a rare, multi-source dataset and a project that is at an advanced stage, so your contributions can quickly become visible outputs. The role offers close mentorship from the principal investigator, room to shape the final analyses, and opportunities to co-develop follow-up funding ideas (including contributing to a new grant application). The fulltime position is for 6 months, starting March 1st 2026

You will work here
You will be based in the AARTSS Lab within the Social Psychology group, which is highly collaborative and feedback-oriented. On this specific project, you will work closely with the principal investigator and an international network of researchers across institutions (including UvA, Stanford University, and University of Minnesota), combining perspectives from social psychology, data science, and computational social science.

If you recognize yourself in this profile and are interested in the role, we look forward to receiving your motivation letter (max 1 page) and brief CV (including educational background, publications, ongoing projects). You can apply via the red button until 3 February 2026. Interviews will take place on 6 February 2026. In case of equal qualifications, internal candidates will be given preference over external candidates. For questions about the vacancy, you can contact Eftychia Stamkou ([email protected]).

Sexual & reproductive rights (SRHR) Health
About us
The School of Global Affairs (SGA) in the Faculty of Social Science and Public Policy at King’s is a dynamic hub of multi-disciplinary scholarship that seeks to address the pressing issues facing our world today, including climate change, inequality and global health.

At King’s, we are deeply committed to embedding good equality and diversity practices into all our activities so that the university is an inclusive, welcoming, and inspiring place to work and study, regardless of age, disability, gender reassignment, marital status, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion, sex, or sexual orientation. King’s offers inclusive benefits to staff, including flexible working, Enhanced Parental Leave, funds for Parents and Carers, and the potential to join community staff networks.

About the role
The PDRA will conduct research within the Wellcome-funded Speculative Fertilities**: Finance, Pharma, and the Future of Reproduction** project, which aims to transform the social study of reproduction by analysing the intersection of the financial and fertility sectors as a key site of reproductive politics. Using qualitative methods, this project consists of three work streams analysing case studies that may transform the future of reproduction, including automated IVF, in vitro gametogenesis (IVG) and mifepristone (abortion pill) as contraception. The advertised position focuses on the latter work stream, which will explore the socio-cultural as well as political-economic dimensions of clinical trials that explore the possibility of using mifepristone as a weekly contraceptive. The research will focus on the social dynamics of both the clinical trials themselves and the steps towards registration, authorisation and implementation after the trial finishes.
This is a full-time role, and you will be offered a fixed term contract for 36 months.
Research staff at King’s are entitled to at least 10 days per year (pro-rata) for professional development. This entitlement, from the Concordat to Support the Career Development of Researchers, applies to Postdocs, Research Assistants, Research and Teaching Technicians, Teaching Fellows and AEP equivalent up to and including grade 7.
