**Job Announcement Ref. #11-23013**

BIOfid provides access to current and historical biodiversity literature. It is a collaboration between SGN, the University Library Johann Christian Senckenberg at Goethe University, and the working group Computational Humanities/Text Technology at Goethe University. Since the start of the pilot project on data mobilization from historical Central European biodiversity literature in German language, we have gradually expanded our service at the organismic (vascular plants, birds, moths and butterflies, soil invertebrates) and technological level (Text Mining Pipeline and Semantic Search Engine). The developed tools should be re-usable to permit processing of further text corpora with other organism groups and/or other geographic regions in the future.

The applicant should lead the development of use cases that utilize data generated by text mining to advance fundamental research in ecology and biogeography concerning, e.g., past distributions of species and biotic interactions, such as pollination, herbivory or habitat preferences. She or he should also establish a close communication network to the target group, present BIOfid advances and tools to the wider community and contribute to training researchers in using BIOfid tools.

- Disseminate and promote the results and tools of BIOfid to the wider community of biologists, in particular but not limited to the fields of Ecology and Biogeography (e.g. conference contributions, workshops)
- Contribute the user perspective in technical discussions
- Conceptualize and evaluate user-feedback loops
- Contribute to scientific publications that focus more on the related developments in informatics and text mining
- Supervise student assistants

- Documented ability to publish scientific papers in international journals
- Research experience in interdisciplinary working environments
- Excellent written and oral communication skills in English
- Ideally at least good command of German
- Very good leadership qualities and social skills

**What is awaiting you?**
