The ICI Berlin is an independent research centre located in Berlin/Prenzlauer Berg. For our core project reduction, we are looking for a responsible, reliable, and committed Research Coordinator.
The ICI Berlin’s core project explores the critical potentials of notions and practices of ‘reduction’, within and across different fields and approaches, from the sciences, technology, and the arts to feminist, queer, and decolonial approaches, inquiring in particular into the transversality of different economies of reduction and production, and into possibilities of escaping them. For a more detailed description of the project, see the Focus reduction 2020–22.

The ICI Berlin offers an intellectually stimulating, challenging, and diversified work-environment and a remuneration corresponding to TV-L 13 (50%) for four years, starting in early 2021. Scholars from all disciplines are welcome to apply.
Your application should include a cover letter, a CV, and a research statement (max 750 words) indicating how your research interests relate to those of the ICI’s current core project reduction.
