PhD fellowship in quantitative evolutionary genetics/statistics

A PhD fellowship in quantitative evolutionary genetics/statistics is
available at NTNU. Depending on qualifications and interests of
prospective students, the fellowship is suitable for candidates
seeking a PhD in either mathematics (statistics/biomodelling) or in
biology. The fellowship is for up to four years including 25% teaching
duties.

The PhD-fellow will work on a theoretical project focusing on
mathematical, quantitative genetic, evolutionary models for the
effects of escaped farmed salmon of genetic variability and fitness of
populations of wild Atlantic salmon. The main areas of research will
be multitrait evolution, intrusion histories and alternative
demographic-evolutionary equilibria, parameter estimation,
stochastic simulation of explicit genetic models, and models for the
loss of genetic variation in the farmed-wild population system.
The project, financed by the Norwegian Research Council, is a
collaboration between the Dept. of Mathematical Sciences, NTNU, and
researchers at NINA, Akvaforsk and Imperial Collage,
London. The fellowship is also linked to the Centre for Conservation
Biology, NTNU (http://www.bio.ntnu.no/ccb/).

We are looking for candidates with a background in theoretical
evolutionary genetics, statistics and mathematical modelling. In
addition, some programming experience is necessary. Candidates must
have completed a masters degree in statistics, biology or equivalent
before employment can take place, and must fulfill the requirements
for doctoral studies at NTNU, see
http://www.ime.ntnu.no/english/research/phd

Further inquiries about the position may be directed to Associate
Professor Jarle Tufto,

appointment. The successful applicant must agree to the conditions
laid down for public employees.
Candidates will be required to enroll in a PhD program within the
period of employment, and must sign a contract regulating the starting
date and duration of employment as well as the $mandatory work.
According to Norwegian policies, the government workforce should, as
closely as possible, reflect the diversity of the population at large.
It is therefore a goal of NTNU, as a government institution, to have a
workforce which is balanced with respect to age and gender, and to
recruit persons of immigrant background. Persons of immigrant
background are encouraged to apply.

NTNU also wishes to increase the number of women on its workforce, and
women are specifically encouraged to apply.

The application must include information about education, exams and
earlier experience.
Certified copies of certificates and diplomas must be enclosed.
Relevant scientific works should be submitted in triplicate. Joint
works will be taken into account. In cases where it is difficult to
determine the applicant's contribution, a short note of explanation
should be supplied.

Applications should be sent to:
Faculty of Information Technology, Mathematics and Electrical Engineering
Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU)
NO-7491 Trondheim, Norway
Deadline: January 21st, 2008.
Applications should be marked: IME 092/2007.
