Dear colleagues, The University of Glasgow is currently seeking applicants for its Lord Kelvin Adam Smith (LKAS) fellowships scheme in the area of Mathematical and Statistical Ecology. The scheme includes salary and research budget, and offers the opportunity to establish and develop an independent research career. This is a 3 year research fellowship with possible opportunities for continuing post at the end of the 3 years.
We are seeking candidates working in any area of statistical or mathematical ecology whose research has a strong focus on integrating data with theoretical approaches. The successful candidate will be based in the School of Mathematics and Statistics but work closely with the Boyd Orr Centre for Ecosystem and Population Health (winner of a Queen’s Anniversary Prize 2013) (http://www.gla.ac.uk/research/az/boydorr/) and the Institute of Biodiversity, Animal Health and Comparative Medicine as part of an initiative to strengthen the interdisciplinary research currently underway between the School of Mathematics & Statistics and the Life Sciences within the University of Glasgow. More information about the fellowship scheme can be found at http://www.gla.ac.uk/research/fellowships/fullyfundedfellowships/ and the application form can be found at http://www.gla.ac.uk/about/jobs/vacancies/ by entering reference no. 015287. The deadline for applications is Monday 9 January 2017. For informal discussions about the post or ongoing research activities at the university please feel free to contact me at [email protected]. -- Dr Colin Torney Lecturer in Mathematical Biology & Ecology School of Mathematics and Statistics The University of Glasgow, charity number SC004401
