Graduate & Postdoc Fellowships in Ocean Observation, Modeling and Data Assimilation, Dalhousie University, Canada

Graduate and post-doctoral fellowships in ocean observation, modeling and data assimilation are available at Dalhousie University through a newly funded NSERC Strategic Network Grant (SNG). The SNG builds on the Ocean Tracking Network, a global, $168-million conservation project, which is conducting the world’s most comprehensive and revolutionary examination of the movement of marine life and its relationship to changing ocean conditions (http://oceantrackingnetwork.org).

We are currently seeking six graduate and three post-doctoral fellows with strong quantitative abilities who will participate in the implementation of an integrated observation and modeling system. The system will include cutting-edge ocean measurements (through sensors on ocean gliders, moorings and animals), physical and biological models, and advanced data assimilation, and is funded through the SNG. The initial geographic focus is the Northwest Atlantic Ocean and adjacent shelf seas.

[Denmark] PhD & Postdoc Positions in Bioinformatics/Systems Biology at the Center for Biological Sequence Analysis

The Center for Biological Sequence Analysis at the Technical University of Denmark was formed in 1993, and conducts basic research in the fields of bioinformatics and systems biology. The center is divided into ten specialist research groups, has a highly multi-disciplinary profile (biologists, biochemists, MDs, physicists, statisticians, and computer scientists) with a ratio of 2:1 of bio-to-nonbio backgrounds. CBS represents one of the large bioinformatics groups in academia in Europe.

[USA] Graduate Students and Postdoc Positions in Information Sciences at Los Alamos National Laboratory

The Socio-technical Modeling and Simulation team in the Information Sciences Group (CCS-3) at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) has projects in modeling and simulation spanning the full range of research activities from problem analysis, algorithmic and system design, to implementation, testing and applications of our tools. Our work covers a diverse and ever-expanding spectrum of application domains with a focus on infrastructure modeling; our current portfolio includes communication networks, transportation networks, commodity networks, epidemic modeling, agent-based activity modeling, and social networks. Our simulations model large-scale socio-technological systems with high fidelity. To tackle the scalability challenge, we implement our systems on high-performance distributed computing clusters. Most of our students have been able to publish their work done here in peer-reviewed journals and conferences.
