Postdoctoral Fellowship Management PhD 2011


The objective of the IARC Management PhD is to promote international collaboration in cancer research. The Agency is inter-disciplinary, bringing together skills in epidemiology, laboratory sciences and biostatistics to identify the causes of cancer so that preventive measures may be adopted and the burden of disease and associated suffering reduced. A Management PhD significant feature of the IARC is its expertise in coordinating research across countries and organizations; its independent role as an international organization facilitates this activity. The Agency Management PhD has a particular interest in conducting research in low and middle-income countries through partnerships and collaborations with researchers in these regions.
Detail:

Management PhD applications for a training fellowship in 2011-2012 are invited from postdoctoral scientists who are Australian nationals1, who intend to pursue a career in cancer research and wish to complete their training in those aspects of cancer research related to the Agency’s mission and of priority for the Cancer Council Australia: to coordinate and conduct both epidemiological and laboratory research into the causes and prevention of cancer. Disciplines covered are: epidemiology (including genetic and molecular), biostatistics, bioinformatics, and areas related to mechanisms of carcinogenesis including molecular and cell biology, molecular genetics, epigenetics, and molecular pathology. There is an emphasis on interdisciplinary projects.

3 Management PhD Position in Robotic Research-Sweden 2011

3 PhD Position in Robotic Research-Sweden 2011
We are looking for three PhD candidates at the AASS Learning Systems Lab of Örebro University, Sweden. The respective positions will address the following topics:

(1) Active 3D Perception for a Robot Unloading Containers

Research in this project can include fusion of visual and 3D range information (RGB-D sensing), feature-based object detection, concepts for active sensing, modelling shape deformations, and integration into a compact, semantic 3D world model. State-of-the-art range sensors are available for the work, including novel TOF cameras and, of course, the Kinect sensor.

[Full call at http://aass.oru.se/Research/Learning/announcements/PhD_Position-Roblog_3D.pdf]

(2) Hybrid Automatic Planning for a Robot Unloading Containers

The aim of this PhD project will be on fast generation of safe and reliable sequences of actions to unload objects of different types, shapes, and weights from a container using a specialized robotic arm. Specific research questions may include exploration of suitable representations for symbolic and sub-symbolic constraints in a unified framework, fast planning of trajectories based on the hybrid representation, and reasoning about uncertainty in the perceptual knowledge about the objects to manipulate.

[Full call at http://aass.oru.se/Research/Learning/announcements/PhD_Position-Roblog_HP.pdf]

(3) Safe and Flexible Navigation for Long-Term Operation of Professional Service Robots in Dynamic Environments

Research in this project can address new self-localization methods for robust long-term operation of autonomous vehicles in dynamic environments; methods for smooth, collision-free navigation at high speeds in the presence of static and moving objects; detection and tracking humans; efficient path planning using traffic rule information; and execution monitoring under consideration of traffic rules.

[Full call at http://aass.oru.se/Research/Learning/announcements/PhD_Position-SAVIE.pdf]

In addition to interest in the topic, a strong theoretical background and solid programming skills, applicants should have the equivalent of a Masters degree in an appropriate field (including Computer Science, Robotics, Electrical Engineering, Physics and Applied Mathematics, for example). Proficiency in written/spoken English is mandatory.
