The Institute of Statistics,
Biostatistics and Actuarial Sciences (ISBA, http://www.uclouvain.be/isba) is a renowned research centre of
high international reputation which offers a very stimulating working
environment. Around 30 pre- and postdoctoral researchers are working under the
supervision of 10 full-time professors, in a variety of fields of methodological
and applied statistics, including biostatistics and actuarial
sciences.
The ISBA is currently working on the IAP project ‘Developing crucial statistical methods for
understanding major complex dynamic systems in natural, biomedical and social
sciences’ and is searching candidates with interest and experience in:
-
The study of associations and dependencies in complex systems
- The study of
different dynamics in complex systems
- Multivariate modelling and
hierarchically structured data
- Dynamics of a stochastic system and the
impact of non-observed characteristics
- Variable and model selection and the
study of (ultra-)high dimensional data
The candidate (PhD) will also be
