Post-doc Research Fellow Level 1,Computer Science,Temp

The BikeHood project proposes to create Ireland's first cycling neighbourhood. It aims to transform communities by promoting cycling and walking while enhancing infrastructure to tackle traffic congestion, pollution, and inequality. Our novel approach integrates key principles, advanced technologies like smart mobility solutions, real-time data collection, and the use of digital twin technology for efficient experimentation and optimisation. BikeHood seeks to overcome current barriers to cycling adoption, such as inadequate infrastructure and the lack of incentives for sustainable transport. We now seek a Postdoc Level 1 to join the team to research and develop the technology for the project.
