Postdoctoral Scholar Position

The international working group SQuID (Statistical Quantification of Individual Differences; https://github.com/hallegue/squid) and the Center of Biodiversity Dynamics (CBD; https://www.ntnu.edu/cbd/) at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) is seeking to hire a POSTDOCTORAL SCHOLAR to join us in augmenting three SQuID activities:

1. Developing new biological understanding by blending the statistics of linear mixed models with simulations of biological processes affecting real data,

2. Refining in-person workshops focused on teaching applications of linear mixed models, and

3. Expanding remote or on-line educational materials. We seek an interactive individual with a PhD in a relevant area and other relevant skills.

The successful candidate should have a strong interest in life science and be familiar with topical issues in ecology and evolution, a good knowledge of statistics and computer tools employed by statisticians (e.g., R, C++), and a record of contributing to novel educational approaches to quantitative topics, especially via remote or on-line platforms.

The successful candidate would likely start in early 2021 and would participate fully in several planned SQuID activities, including 6 workshops (currently planned to be held at 6 institutions worldwide) combining teaching and research, and one or more working groups focused on both research and educational initiatives.

To apply for the job see: https://www.jobbnorge.no/en/available-j ... r-in-squid. Please refer to the application number NV-97/20 when applying.

For further information about the position you may contact Jonathan Wright (jonathan.wright@ntnu.no), David Westneat (david.westneat@uky.edu), or Niels Dingemanse (dingemanse@biologie.uni-muenchen.de)... or any squid you happen to encounter.
