> 
> Under the direction of the Principal Investigator (Prof. Gil Eyal) and in collaboration with our interdisciplinary team of faculty and graduate students, the successful candidate will play an integral role in a large-scale project and seminar series on trust and mistrust in science and experts. The Mellon Sawyer Seminar seeks to develop a more sophisticated and balanced approach to the timely question of trust and mistrust in science and experts by encouraging dialogue among different units and disciplines at Columbia university, outside experts and stakeholders, as well as with residents of adjacent communities. 
> 
> Launched in Fall 2020, the Mellon-Sawyer Seminar has already organized a series of events addressing the pandemic as well as the question trust in climate science. The successful candidate will be involved in organizing a series of similar thematic events to culminate with a major conference in Spring 2022. The primary responsibility for the postdoctoral scholar is to organize a final event that would draw not just academics, but also activists, artists, journalists and others to discuss the theme of trust. The candidate will also work with graduate students to curate an exhibition at the Lenfest Center for the Arts on the theme of trust in science, visual narratives and data presentation. The incumbent will also be involved in all the other public programming happening throughout 2021-2022. Strong interpersonal skills, documented experience in organizing events, and relevant interest in the areas of trust and mistrust is preferred. 
> 
> Applications will be accepted until February 5, 2021. Candidates will be interviewed through March 1, 2021. We currently expect the postdoctoral candidate to be New York City-based. Candidates will receive a competitive salary, Columbia University benefits, and a computing allowance. 
> 
> PhD in the arts, humanities, sociology, the social sciences, journalism, or related field is required.
