Thanks for the warm welcome - I've been meaning to pass by to say hi, but the first weeks have been quite busy and I'm still sitting in VMP9 for a little while. But I'll try to pass by next week and look forward to Blattwerk chats :)

Still, I'm also sad to leave @viadrina.eu and I have many people to thank for my time there. I'm grateful that I got the (in Germany still rare) opportunities a tenure-track job affords and for having the most fantastic and supportive colleagues at Viadrina💙💛
I'll do my best to pay this forward!

Some professional news as I took my oath of office today:
On September 1st, I joined the University of Hamburg as a full professor of democratic political decision making👋

I'm very excited about this job & the chance to continue researching democracy, party competition and digitalization here

DM or e-mail us ( demokratisches-entscheiden.wiso (AT) uni-hamburg.de ) if you have questions.
We're excited to hear from you & start working on this project together. 🎉

theresa gessler @gessler.bsky.social · Aug 14

The position fits for someone with methods skills & interest in polarization & democracy.

It is open to both new & advanced PhD students working on related topics. Project funding & initial contract is for 1 year but the position can be extended to a regular teaching-based 75% PhD position at UHH

The project: We aim to develop a depolarization toolkit to be used in social contexts like schools or sports clubs. For this, we're collaborating with @offenegesellschaft.bsky.social to organize local events in Germany.
