Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Lead the development of an Agent-Based Model to simulate urban mobility decisions and policy responses in Barcelona. Collaborate with environmental modelling partners to translate mobility patterns into population exposure and vulnerability estimates.
Requires a PhD in Transportation, Environmental Psychology, Behavioural Economics, or a related field with expertise in choice modelling and Agent-Based Modelling. Candidates must possess strong quantitative skills and the ability to work in interdisciplinary teams.
Are you interested in developing innovative behavioural models to understand how urban mobility policies shape human behaviour, exposure, and environmental outcomes?
Job description
We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Researcher to join the European UrbanAIR project, an interdisciplinary initiative that aims to support healthier and more sustainable cities by integrating environmental modelling, decision analysis, and behavioural simulation within a digital twin infrastructure.
UrbanAIR develops innovative methods to assess how policy interventions influence urban mobility patterns, air pollution exposure, and population vulnerability.
The postdoctoral researcher will play a central role in connecting behavioural decision-making with environmental exposure assessment through the development of an Agent-Based Model (ABM) of mobility behaviour in Barcelona.
Research Responsibilities
The successful candidate will lead the development of a behavioural model that simulates how individuals make mobility decisions in urban environments and how these decisions evolve in response to policy interventions.
Key responsibilities include:
