About the position
Position as PhD Research Fellow in Human-Robot Interaction is available at the Department of Informatics, Robotics and Intelligent Systems Research Group (ROBIN), University of Oslo.
Starting date no later than 10.08.2026 or as soon as possible. The fellowship period is three years.
Depending on the candidate and the teaching needs of the department, the fellowship period can be extended for either for compulsory work consisting of e.g., teaching and supervision duties and research assistance up top four years.
No one can be appointed for more than one PhD Research Fellowship period at the University of Oslo.
Place of work is Department of Informatics, Robotics and Intelligent Systems, at Gaustad/Blindern, Oslo.
Job description
We are looking for a PhD candidate to work in the project “Robots as Welfare Technologies and Actors for ELderly Care: A Nordic Model for Integration of Advanced Assistive Technologies (ROBOWELL )”, funded by NordForsk and Novo Nordic Foundation (grant agreement 226198).
The project aims to develop a proposal for a Nordic Model for integrating social and assistive robots as welfare technologies and actors in elderly care. This is for addressing challenges posed by the aging population and the shortage of nursing staff across Nordic countries.
Previous research in the Nordic region's welfare tradition illustrates the use of welfare technologies like fall alarms, cameras, tablets, and computers. However, more complex welfare technologies such as AI-driven technologies, including social and assistive robots might challenge the current practical, ethical, and legal existing infrastructures, or models around the integration of welfare technologies in the care systems for elderly people.
As a PhD candidate, you will conduct user studies on the integration of AI-driven social robots, or socially assistive robots (SARs) within the elderly care, involving both old adults and healthcare professionals in your research, to explore the benefits and tensions across technical, ethical and regulatory aspects, and assess the impact of robots on care workflows. The key goal of the PhD project is to develop a proposal for a Nordic Model for sustainable robot integration in care set-tings, having the Norwegian context in focus. You will publish results in high-quality peer-reviewed journals and scientific conferences.
The overall ROBOWELL project is a Nordic Project taking place in Norway (University of Oslo, project leader), Sweden (KTH Royal Institute of Technology), and Denmark (University of Southern Denmark), together with relevant stakeholders in each country. Your main tasks are to be conducted in Norway, but you are expected to contribute to the overall project, and exchange knowledge with the other project partners. Travels within the Nordic countries and to other countries as part of the PhD are expected.
The position will give you a unique opportunity to contribute to the future model of integration of robots as welfare technologies and actors within elderly care, and beyond.
