Lehigh University理海大学 PhD at Informatics Lab, Research Assistant

http://www.cse.lehigh.edu/~chen/students.htm


Two funded Graduate Research Assistantship positions are now open at the
Informatics lab at Lehigh University.  Our research aims to leverage
machine learning, computational geometry, structural biology, parallel
computing and computational statistics to identify and explain
mechanisms of protein binding specificity.  Both positions are supported
by new NIH funding.

Successful candidates are expected to be highly committed and ambitious,
looking constantly for original ways to advance their careers through
their publications, presentations and achievements.  Personal interest
in biomedical problems and a desire to find connections to computational
research and solutions is essential.  Students seeking academic
positions after graduation are especially encouraged to apply.

Professor Brian Chen, the Director of the Informatics Lab, works closely
with students in all aspects of research, from conception, to design,
experimentation, publication and presentation.  In addition to learning
how to perform multidisciplinary research in bioinformatics, graduate
students in the lab will have opportunities to travel to present their
findings, to learn how to mentor undergraduate researchers, to learn how
to pursue funding, and to receive direct feedback on their writing and
presentations.

Details on specific projects and ideas for new projects will be
discussed during a phone or on-site visit (if practical).  Candidates
should contact Brian Chen directly for more information (telephone:
(610) 758-4085 email: chen@cse.lehigh.edu).  A CV will greatly assist
initial discussions, but all prospective students must ultimately apply
to the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Lehigh University.
