pattern-processing and classification systems which can be trained to
forecast problems in pregnancy.  This will involve continuation of work on
pattern-classification and regression analysis, using neural networks
operating on a very large database of about 1.2 million pregnancies from
various European countries.  Challenging components of the project include
dealing with missing and uncertain variables, sensitivity analysis,
variable selection procedures and cluster analysis.

Many leading European obstetrical centres are involved in the Euro-PUNCH
project, and close collaboration with a number of these will be an
essential component of the post offered.

Candidates for this post are expected to have a good first degree and
preferably a post-graduate degree in a relevant discipline.  Come
familiarity with medical statistics and neural networks is desirable but
not essential.

Salary (on the RA scale) will depend on age and experience, and is likely
to be in the range of #14,317 to #15,986 per annum.  Appointment would be
subject to satisfactory health screening.

Applications will close on Friday 8th December 1995.

Applications (naming two referees) should be submitted to:
