Limit of Tenure: Two years
The Cambridge Infectious Disease Consortium (CIDC:
<http://www.vet.cam.ac.uk/cidc> www.vet.cam.ac.uk/cidc) is a collaborative
venture, involving several Cambridge University departments and other
research institutes including the Animal Health Trust. A major objective of
the CIDC is to provide a world-class research environment for the training
of veterinarians as infectious disease specialists and to develop research
programmes in infectious disease dynamics in collaboration with other CIDC
scientists.
The post-holder will join a team of mathematical modellers and
epidemiologists in the Disease Dynamics Unit based at the Department of
Veterinary Medicine. The ideal candidate will have a Ph.D. in a related
field (outstanding candidates with a Masters degree in statistics will be
considered.) The post-holder will have two main duties:
* to provide statistical teaching and consultancy services both within
and outside the Department of Veterinary Medicine.
* to carry out research in the area of infectious diseases.
This post would suit candidates who wish to carry out guided research in
numerous exciting projects (e.g. the analysis of datasets from some
collaborative experiments on avian influenza) and/or those who wish to carry
out their own research in veterinary infectious diseases.
The post is available for 2 years in the first instance, starting
immediately. Interviews will be held at the end of June.
