Job Description

The potential of techniques from Artificial Intelligence for improved patient care is widely recognized. However, the number of applications that make it to the patient or clinician remains low. One of the causes of this gap is that clinicians and AI experts often speak a different language. To try and bridge the gap between the two disciplines the Amsterdam UMC (AUMC) and Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (VU) are joining forces and are creating a joint position between the Cancer Center Amsterdam of the Amsterdam UMC and the Department of Computer Science at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam.

Job Description

With the chair in Collaborative Governance the department aims to expand the current New Public Governance (NPG) research program into promising new research areas. In order to be able to establish a research group, the chairholder may hire a tenure track assistant professor.

The current academic governance debate arises from broad societal developments, such as globalization, individualization and digitalization which have created ‘wicked’ problems. These problems, in turn, call for new forms of public governance: public institutions disaggregate and realign in increasingly complex forms; hybridization and collaboration are becoming the norm. An important trend in public governance is that in addition to the traditional government actors, other actors – such as (sometimes angry) citizens, companies, and societal partners – play an ever larger role. The chair will focus on this multi-stakeholder field that Ansell and Torfing (2018) describe as interactive or collaborative governance, being the interaction between a plethora of public and private actors as the vehicle for initiating, designing and implementing policies and regulations. 

Deadline: 1 May 2021
