Two post-doctoral researchers in Bayesian statistics and its applications to ecological data

We are seeking two post-doctoral researchers in Bayesian statistics and its applications to ecological data and biodiversity monitoring for a fixed term of 2-3 years, starting on 1 April or as agreed.

The ideal candidates will have experience in developing and applying Bayesian methods in computationally challenging problems. Prior experience in ecology is not necessary, but considered an advantage.

The postdoctoral researchers will work in two international and cross-disciplinary research projects:

• Developing future strategies for the monitoring of biodiversity and for sustained and cost-efficient collection of long-term biodiversity data. This will involve developing methods, algorithms and statistical theory utilizing ideas from Bayesian model-based experimental design and value of information analyses.
• Developing future tools for analyzing a...
