Hello folks,
The Dean of the Faculty of Science has just announced that Ryerson
University is conducting an external search for a Teir II NSERC Canada
Research Chair in the area of Big data (broadly defined). If you are
aware of any young (within 10 years of PhD) research stars in this area,
please alert them to this opportunity. We are very excited to have an
opportunity to recruit another excellent researcher in the area of Big
Data to the Faculty of Science (if the successful candidate chooses us
as their home). Our ability to secure one and possibly two new CRCs is
a testament to the tremendous research activities and efforts of our new
and growing Faculty of Science. The Tier II Canada Research Chairs that
will come available within the Faculty in 2014.
If interested folks email me, I will send them contact information to
express their interest to the appropriate people at Ryerson. It would be
really great to have Eco-informatics or Genome Informatics folks
considered in this competition.
BEST,
LC
