Idiap invites applications for a permanent Senior Researcher position. 
The main focus of this search is for highly qualified candidates, with 
evidence of strong research, PhD student supervision, and project 
management capabilities.

We particularly encourage those candidates committed to novel theories

contributing to the diversification of Idiap's activities and bringing 
expertise in new application areas. Topics of particular interest 
include (but are not limited to) environmental monitoring and risk

careers can also be considered for exceptional candidates.
