Applications are invited from researchers with an interest in joining
the four-year (2000-2003) EU network project IMAGETOX aimed at the
development of predictive models and theories about chemicals
toxicity.
The network consists of laboratories working in computational
chemistry, toxicology, and computer science. The network project aims
at improving the power of models for toxicity
prediction. It will take advantage of the recent advances in computer
science (such as hybrid systems, multiple classifiers, data mining,
and machine learning) to develop theories and systems. These will be
applied to the development and validation of
real world applications. Models will be developed also for modelling
chemicals and for extracting subgroups relevant for (eco)toxicology
and for environmental fate prediction.
The starting date of the appointment will be around September 2002;
the fellowship can last from 6 to 12 months. Grant will be from 2000
to 3000 Euro/month, depending on pre- or post-doc qualification.
Expected candidates should have a background in one of the indicated
areas. Interested candidates should send an application (including
CV, list of publications, present employment data, the preferred
length of fellowship) to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
