[cmath] SHARCNET Chair in Computational Epidemiology - McMaster University, Department of Mathematics and Statistics

[Alan Kelm]

The Department of Mathematics and Statistics at McMaster University 
invites applications for the SHARCNET Chair in Computational Epidemiology. 
We are seeking applications from candidates at the assistant professor 
level, however exceptional candidates at the associate and full professor 
ranks will also be considered; salary will be based on qualifications and 
experience. The anticipated starting date is July 1, 2009. Candidates 
should have a PhD, a proven research record in mathematical and 
computational epidemiology of infectious disease and a research program 
that will take advantage of SHARCNET's high-performance computing 
facilities.

The Department of Mathematics and Statistics is a research intensive 
department with active research groups in many areas including 
mathematical biology and applied mathematics. SHARCNET is a consortium of 
colleges and universities that share a "cluster of clusters" of high 
performance computers, linked by advanced fibre optics. The SHARCNET Chair 
will benefit from McMaster's newly established Michael G. DeGroote 
Institute of Infectious Disease Research and the broad research strength 
in infectious disease epidemiology in many other departments, including 
Biology, Biochemistry and Biomedical Sciences, Anthropology, Clinical 
Epidemiology and Biostatistics, Pathology and Molecular Medicine.

Candidates are required to apply for this position by using the MathJobs 
website. See our advertisement at http://www.mathjobs.org. Review of 
applications will begin on November 15, 2008 and will continue until the 
position is filled.

Applicants should arrange for at least three letters of recommendation. At 
least one of these letters should report on the candidate's teaching 
abilities. Preferably these letters will be submitted through the MathJobs 
website (see above); they may also be sent directly to:
