POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCH POSITION IN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
=========================================================
The Computational Health Informatics Laboratory (CHIL) in the David R.
Cheriton School of Computer Science at the University of Waterloo seeks
highly qualified postdoctoral researchers with strong background and
interest in building intelligent interactive systems. We are particularly
interested in candidates who have interests and a strong track record in
artificial intelligence and machine learning applied to human interactive
systems, health informatics, affective computing, decision theoretic
planning, or social computing. Candidates across all areas will be
considered.  The positions are fully funded for one year, with expected
renewals up to three years.

The successful candidates must have obtained a recent Ph.D. in computer
science, cognitive science, computer engineering, mathematics, or a related
field. Candidates with a Ph.D. in biomedical engineering, medicine,
psychology, or other clinical sciences will be considered if they have a
demonstrated ability for technical (e.g. mathematical or computational)
research, or if they fit exceptionally well within the scope of the
projects below. Successful candidates will be expected to work closely with
undergraduate, Master's and Ph.D. students.  Publication of significant
research in high quality venues will be a top priority for successful
candidates.  Start dates for the position are immediate.  Successful
candidates will receive a one-year contract, with expected extensions based
on performance to (at least) current funding timelines of three years.

Applicants should email the following to Jesse Hoey (jhoey at cs.uwaterloo.ca):

- a complete CV,
- a research statement (max two pages),
- country of citizenship and date of availability,
- names and contact information of three references.

Applications without all of elements above will not be considered.
Applications will be considered as they are received, and the call will
remain open until the positions are filled.

See http://www.cs.uwaterloo.ca/~jhoey/research/ for details on ongoing
projects. We are particularly interested in candidates whose work aligns
with the ACT at HOME (cs.uwaterloo.ca/~jhoey/research/act at home/), DIY-AIDE (
cs.uwaterloo.ca/~jhoey/research/diysmarthome/, an AGEWELL project, see
agewell-nce.ca), and BayesACT (bayesact.ca) projects.
