复旦大学公共卫生学院拟招聘1~2名博士后研究人员，主要研究内容为：
n 数据整合：建立不同来源的各种数据的整合技术及方法评价技术；
n 血吸虫病和流感的空间分析：主要探讨疾病风险的动态性及预测研究，复杂的混合模型需要建立，良好的统计分析技术必需；
n 探讨长期不同位置上疾病与潜在风险因子的关联性建立预测疾病未来发展趋势的模型，用于疾病的监测与预测。需要有纵向数据分析方法的技能与经验；
n 空间流行病学的理论方法研究：该研究内容将基于双方的兴趣与研究背景而定。
录取的人员将加入一个有流行病学家、风险暴露建模人员、地理学家、生物统计学家以及生物信息学家的研究团队，该团队已经参与完成了多个相关内容的研究课题，合作默契，拥有丰富的科研经验。申请者必须是流行病学或一密切相关专业（如：生物统计学、生态学、地理信息系统、遥感、生物信息学、数学等）的博士毕业生。对于拥有交叉多学科研究的经验，特别是空间数据分析方面的申请者将优先考虑。
申请者需要有良好的英文论文撰写和口语表达能力，能独立或与他人合作完成某一工作任务，并且有一定的程序编写能力（SAS或R）。
录取的人员将与姜庆五教授和张志杰博士一起工作，加入相关团队。工作时间为1年，表现良好的将根据双方意愿续签1~2年。工作开始的时间比较灵活，在2011年冬季和2012年夏季之间均可，申请截止日期为2012-2-01.
有意者请将个人简历和2篇代表性论文发给姜庆五教授(epistat@gmail.com) 或张志杰博士(zhj_zhang@fudan.edu.cn)。求职信（Cover letter）和推荐信暂不需要，但以后可能被要求提供 。

Postdoctoral Positions in Spatial Epidemiology, School of Public Health, Fudan University
There are 1~2 openings for postdoctoral research positions in the Department of Epidemiology at the School of Publich Health, Fudan University. The areas of research include:
n Data integration: The approaches to fuse datasets from various sources at different scales will be established and their efficiencies will also be assessed;
n Spatial analysis of schistosomiasis and influenza: This study will examine the dynamic changes of disease risks. The complicated mixture models will be developed;
n Examining disease associations in a number of locations for many years to see if models can be developed predicting the differences/changes in rates across locations and across time, allowing reasonable predictions of effects of future disease scenarios. The techniques of longitudinal data analysis should be a prerequisite;
n Theoretical study of spatial epidemiology: This will be determined based on bilateral interestes and education background.
Successful candidates will join a group of epidemiologists, exposoure modellers, geographers, biostatisticians and bioinformaticians who are involved in many other related studies and interact regularly, with additional opportunities for various researches. Candidates must have a Ph.D. in Epidemiology or a closely related field (e.g., biostatistics, ecology, GIS, RS, bioinformatics, mathematician, et al.) and a priority will be given to those who have experiences in the multi-disciplinary researches, especially the aspect of spatial data analysis.
Written and verbal fluency in English is required. Applicants should have the ability to work both independently and in group settings. Programming skills in either SAS or R/SPLUS is required, and knowledge of both whould be a plus.
The postdoctoral fellows will be advised by and will work closely with Dr. Qingwu Jiang and Dr. Zhijie Zhang. The position is initially for one year, with the possibility of extentsion to an additional year upon the work performance and mutual agreement. The start date is flexible, between Winter, 2011 and Summer 2012.
To apply, please send the Curriculum Vitae and up to two representative publications to Dr. Qingwu Jiang (epistat@gmail.com) or Dr. Zhijie Zhang (zhj_zhang@fudan.edu.cn). Cover letter and three letters of reference are not needed at this time, but may be required later.
