Further to the preliminary announcement last week, the following job
opportunity is now being advertised in the UK and overseas. We are
particularly keen to receive applications from candidates whose research
interests include aspects of stochastic modelling (either
application-oriented or methodological) and computational statistics.
These topics cover many current interests within the group and will form
the focus for future developments.
