Key skills

This position is a postdoctoral role focused on the history of science, specifically within the context of the research project titled "Sovereign Flowers." Candidates are expected to have completed a doctoral degree in history of science or a closely related discipline, demonstrating strong academic research capabilities. The role likely requires expertise in historical research methods, including archival work, critical analysis of historical texts, and the ability to contextualize scientific developments within broader social, political, and cultural frameworks. Familiarity with interdisciplinary approaches that connect history, science, and possibly botanical or environmental studies would be advantageous given the project title. Strong written and verbal communication skills are essential for producing scholarly publications, presenting research findings, and contributing to academic discourse. The candidate should be capable of independent research as well as collaboration within a research team. Experience with digital humanities tools or databases may be beneficial but is not explicitly stated. Overall, the role demands a high level of scholarly rigor, critical thinking, and a deep understanding of the history of science to contribute meaningfully to the objectives of the "Sovereign Flowers" project.
