Postdoc position available at SNN Nijmegen. SNN Nijmegen is a research group dedicated to fundamental research in the areas of machine learning and computational neuroscience. Specific topics are Bayesian networks, approximate inference methods, time-series modeling, bio-informatics, expert systems, stochastic control and collaborative decision making. The group consists currently of 8 researchers and one programmer.
In our group, we have a postdoc position available in a project on genetic linkage analysis, which concerns the problem of finding the genetic correlates of diseases or phenotypes in pedigrees of humans or animals. The required computation is intractable and has recently been succesfully improved using belief propagation (CVM). The research is carried out in close collaboration with experimental research groups on human genetics and animal breeding. The requirement for the postdoc position is a PhD degree and publications in the area of machine learning and/or genetics. The postdoc position is full-time for a period of 3 years. For more information contact Bert Kappen ([EMAIL PROTECTED], +31 24 3614241). Applications should be sent by email before March 1 2006 to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Applications should contain a complete CV, a brief description of his or her research interests.
