My colleagues write:
Multiple full-time postdoctoral researcher positions are available beginning July 1, 2017 (possibly sooner upon request) in the Department of Statistics at Columbia University working with Drs. Jingchen Liu and Zhiliang Ying. The main responsibilities of these positions consist of latent variable modeling and graphical modeling for innovative assessment and cognitive learning, designing interactive assessment experiments, and the corresponding software development.
Applicants must have a PhD in statistics, computer science, or related fields. Applicants with experience of latent variable modeling (hierarchical/multilevel modeling), variable selection, and natural language processing are strongly preferred. Applicants with strong technical/theoretical or programming background are also encouraged to apply.
The initial appointment will be for one year and may be renewable. Salary is competitive and commensurate with qualification.
Applicants should send an email to Hyeon-Ah (Annie) Kang at h.kang@columbia.edu providing a research statement, a curriculum vitae, and three letters of recommendation
I’m not directly involved with this project but these guys are my friends and they’re just down the hall so I hope they can get some top candidates. Columbia is an active environment and there are lots of great projects to work on here.
