We are seeking a postdoctoral research associate to collaborate on a funded
NSF project to develop models that integrate field and experimental data to
investigate viral transmission in northwestern fisheries. The associate will
interact with a multi-disciplinary team to target an important aquatic
pathogen, Infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV), that is both
endemic and emergent in populations of Pacific salmon and trout. The
position reports to Shannon LaDeau at the Cary Institute of Ecosystem
Studies in Millbrook, NY. Strong quantitative and statistical modeling
skills required. Prior experience with modeling infectious transmission,
MCMC techniques and ArcGIS is desirable.
NSF supported salary is available for one year, with a second year dependent
on satisfactory progress.
Please send a CV, contact information (including e-mail addresses)
for 3 references, and a letter of interest clearly articulating how this
builds on previous research experience, specific quantitative skills,
and available start date to:
