There is a new Finnish Doctoral Program in AI. Research topics include Bayesian inference, modeling and workflows as part of fundamental AI. There is a big joint call, where you can choose the supervisor you want to work with. I'm also one of the supervisors. Come work with me or share the news! The first call deadline is April 2, and the second call deadline in fall 2024. See how to apply at https://fcai.fi/doctoral-program, and more about my research at https://users.aalto.fi/~ave/publications.html
It's the weekend and January is a great time to think about if you want to apply for a new job (or a PhD) in the #ClimateChange + #Glaciology fields...

💼 Come work with us! 💼
We're looking for two pre-doctoral research fellows (f/m/x) for a new project jointly led by the department for Global Governance (GG) and the research group Politics of Digitalisation (POLDI).
Just saw a grant boosted here that demanded the recipient produce at least one peer-reviewed paper, participate in a conference and 16 smaller meetings/workshops, write public engagement material, and work part-time for the organisation... for the equivalent of 2-3 months postdoc salary.
Don't boost this stuff, call it out! This isn't "every little helps". They could have created a decently-paid and decent length fellowship for one person, instead of precarity for a dozen.
My new Epidemiology & Virus Evolution (EVE) group at @swisstph 🇨🇭 is looking for a PhD student in the evolution and phylogenetics of respiratory viruses 🦠🌳.
My workgroup (@idealab) at the Department of Evolutionary Biology @unibielefeld has an open PhD student position in evolutionary genetics. We study experimental evolution with freshwater gastropods and would love to have somebody with previous experience in ddRAD-seq and ATAC-seq to join us!
(This will be a very long list by the end of the year if I keep it up. We'll see.)
Your statements are basically done after the first few deadlines. I always thought I'd customize extensively for each school.
Nope.
On a week like this (with so many apps due Sep 15), you just don't have time. You have to trust that you already put in the work with your base template. It's a mental shift from fellowship apps.
A few weeks ago someone told me your first practice job is always trash (so don't stress and rip off the bandaid).
I gave my first practice job talk yesterday. Calling it trash might be a little too self-deprecating... but let's just say I've got a LOT of revisions to make. Whew.
