Dear European digital humanists, the French National Research Center is opening a position for a PhD candidate in digital paleography. Applications are to be submitted by June 24th, 2022 for a start in the autumn 2022. The PhD candidate will work in the context of an interdisciplinary research project of the IRHT (Institute for Research and History of Texts, CNRS UPR841) https://www.irht.cnrs.fr/ and the Laboratoire d’Informatique Gaspard Monge https://siteigm.univ-mlv.fr/(CNRS UMR8049) https://siteigm.univ-mlv.fr/ . The PhD candidate will be supervised by myself as a primary supervisor and Mathieu Aubry as co-supervisor.
