MOX, Department of Mathematics, Politecnico di Milano, Italy
Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in "Advanced statistical and
numerical methods for the analysis of high dimensional functional data
in life sciences and engineering"
1 year contract renewable for up to 3 years
Salary: 31.500 euro per year
**Deadline: 8 February 2011**
The official advert of the position has been published today in our
department website in "job offers":
http://www.mate.polimi.it/index.php?view=bandi2
When looking for the advert, please notice that the project title is
shown in italian: "Metodi statistici e numerici avanzati per l'analisi
di dati funzionali ad alta dimensionalità per problemi di scienze
della vita e di Ingegneria". The advert also contain the application
form (in Italian and English) to be filled in.
This position is available within the research program "Advanced
statistical and numerical methods for the analysis of high dimensional
functional data in life sciences and engineering", that has been
recently awarded the national grant FIRB. The program has been funded
for 3 years. The research unit consists of researchers from MOX
Laboratory for Modeling and Scientific Computing, Department of
Mathematics, Politecnico di Milano, and from CRiSM Center for Research
in Statistical Methodology, Department of Statistics, University of
Warwick, UK. The position will be based in Milano and will be
available starting from May/June 2011; traveling funds will allow for
regular visits to CRiSM and other international universities and
research centers. Other postdoc positions will be available starting
from the second year of the research program.
The research program aims at providing a substantial contribution to
the development of innovative techniques for the analysis of
functional and other high-dimensional data, interfacing advanced
statistical and numerical methods.
Candidates should hold (or be close to completing) a doctorate in
Statistics or a closely related discipline. A relevant background and
research experience in the analysis of functional data would be much
appreciated, but not essential. Strong numerical skills will also be
highly desirable.
Applicants have to send by *February 8* an email to our administrative
secretary Sabrina Torri ([log in to unmask]) with email subject
"Bando n. 3 del 31/01/2011 per incarico di ricerca presso il
Dipartimento di Matematica", containing:
- the application form, filled in and *signed*;
- CV *signed*;
- the names and contact information of two referees;
- a copy of the passport (or identity cards for Italian applicants);
- at most 3 publications or preprints.
All files must be in PDF format. Questions regarding the application
procedure can be emailed to [log in to unmask] The selected
candidate will be notified by the end of March.
