The Complex
Systems Lagrange Laboratory, Complex Networks Research Unit,
at the ISI
Foundation (Turin, Italy) invites applications for a 3 years PhD fellowship
and for a 1+1 years Post Doctoral
fellowship.
The successful
candidates will be part of the research program in computational epidemiology
EpiFor – Complexity and
predictability of epidemics: toward a computational infrastructure for
epidemic forecasts. The project aims at developing a vigorous research
effort integrating
mathematical and statistical epidemiology with
computational sciences and informatics tools to
conduct scenario analysis in
public health domain. The candidates will substantially contribute to:
i)
the formulation of models for the basic theoretical understanding of epidemic
multi-scale and
agent based approaches and their predictive power; ii) the
development of multi-scale computational
approaches and data integration
tools that will provide a realistic modeling framework for
the analysis of
observed epidemic outbreaks and the forecast of patterns of emerging diseases.
The positions are
available starting Summer 2008 and
will start at a mutually agreed upon date.
Applications are accepted till
the positions are filled.
Electronic
applications are preferred and are to be sent to Dr. Vittoria Colizza, vcolizza@isi.it.
Please
find below the details for each position.

PhD
position
Applicants should
possess a B.S. or M.S. or equivalent degree (e.g. Italian laurea) in physics,
applied mathematics, mathematical biology/epidemiology, or related areas,
and have experience
in computing programming (e.g. C/C++, etc.) and
computing environments. High motivation,
ability to quickly adapt to new
scientific environment and good personal and communication skills
(written
and oral English) are assumed for this position.
The fellowship is

this position;
§ curriculum vitae;
§ 1 letter of reference.

PostDoc
position
Applicants should
possess a PhD in physics, applied mathematics, mathematical
biology/epidemiology,
or related areas, and have experience in computing
programming (e.g. C/C++, etc.) and computing
environments. Proven ability to
work independently and experience in statistical and numerical simulation
methods and complex systems are considered to be important assets for this
position. Experience
with Geographic Information Systems is considered as
added value. High motivation, ability to quickly
adapt to new scientific
environment and good personal and communication skills (written and oral
English)
are assumed for this position.
The position is
for one year and can be extended for a second year, if skills, interest and
performance allow.
The application
must include:
