Post-doctoral Research Fellow Position

A post-doctoral research fellow position is available at the Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Sabanci University, Istanbul, Turkey. The position is supported by the European Commission through a Marie Curie International Reintegration Grant on "Information Processing Techniques for Imaging Sensors and Wireless Sensor Networks." Priority will be given to candidates who have experience and interest in developing statistical inference and data fusion algorithms for wireless sensor networks. However candidates who can contribute to other aspects of the project, namely sparse-aperture image formation, computer vision, and medical image analysis will also be considered. The ideal candidate should have (or be about to complete) a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field, and should have a strong background in one or more of the following areas: statistical signal processing, data fusion, distributed estimation, sensor networks, inverse problems, image analysis, optimization theory. The fellow will have the opportunity to initiate and lead new research efforts, perform collaborative work with a number of researchers around the world, co-supervise graduate student theses, and publish in peer-reviewed journals and international conferences. This is a two-year position, with a possibility of extension depending on the availability of funds and the performance of the fellow. There are no citizenship requirements.
