The University of California is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer.
I will be offering a post-doctoral position for modeling and
statistical analysis of ecological population dynamics data in the
Department of Environmental Science, Policy and Management at the
University of California, Berkeley, beginning between September,
2008, and January, 2009. We are looking for someone to apply state-
space statistical methods implemented with Monte Carlo numerical
methods to fit models and compare hypotheses for existing long-term
data from a variety of species. Requirements for the position will
include (1) a Ph.D. in statistics or ecology or related field, (2)
demonstrated experience with mathematical statistics and Monte Carlo
methods, and (3) demonstrated computer programming experience.
Ecologists with strong mathematical skills and statisticians
interested in gaining experience with ecological applications are
especially encouraged to apply. The research can include innovations
in statistical methodology or development of new ecological theory,
depending on the interests of the post-doc. The position will be
funded at a competitive salary for one year, with the possibility
that we will seek additional funding.
