We are looking for  Postdoctoral Researchers to work on projects in 
Cultural Heritage Computing at Yale University. The positions will be

manuscripts. The researchers will  be responsible for both imaging 
manuscripts (with an emphasis on hyperspectral capture) and analyzing 
the layout and form of text and pictures in manuscripts. The researchers 
will collaborate with scholars to develop software tools for them to 
make use of the images and analysis results. Other projects will involve 
a wide range of 3D scanning and modeling at the YDC2 Imaging Laboratory
