2015_10: Postdoc in Oxford: Bayesian optimisation for sustainable fisheries
We are seeking a full-time postdoctoral research assistant to join a highly interdisciplinary team investigating the social, ecological, and economic dynamics associated with marine harvesting. The aim is to build simulations capable of informing policy, based on a deep understanding of agents operating within this system, using Bayesian optimisation procedures, and the development of state-of-the-art decision-simulation approaches. Modelling work at Oxford will be combined with empirical behavioural studies of decision-making agents, with the possibility of brief data gathering missions in California and Indonesia.

The role of Research Scientist staff in CSIRO is to conduct innovative research leading to scientific achievements that are aligned with
CSIRO’s strategies. You may be engaged in scientific activity ranging from fundamental research to the investigation of specific
industry (e.g. fisheries) or community problems. You will have the opportunity to build and maintain networks, play a lead role in
securing project funds, provide scientific leadership and pursue new ideas and approaches that create new concepts
2015_09: Senior Fisheries Scientist, CEFAS
This post is designed for an ambitious, proactive and established fisheries scientist looking to develop new areas of applied research in partnership with the fishing industry and other stakeholders. As a member of a strong and highly committed team of applied fisheries scientists your work will complement and support existing research being conducted by the Applied Fisheries Science and Technology group at Cefas, including fishing gear technology, discard survival assessments, automated data collection, fisheries data collection programmes. You will develop new funding streams and utilise the expertise of members of the group to deliver high impact applied fisheries science. The successful applicant will be motivated to independently initiate applied research and deliver it with the support of a wider team. LIRE LA SUITE –>
