Dear colleagues,<br>
<br>
we have an exciting opening for a postdoc at the IBS Center for
Climate Physics in my group.<br>
<br>
Postdoctoral Fellow Position – Climate, Health and Tick-Borne
Disease Modeling<br>
<br>
<ul>
<li>Employer: IBS Center for Climate Physics</li>
<li>Location: Pusan National University, Busan, South Korea</li>
<li>Salary: 54-60 million KRW/year</li>
<li>Term: Full Time, 2 year, with possibility for renewal</li>
</ul>
<br>
Applicants for this position should have a PhD in climate sciences,
meteorology, epidemiology, physics, computer science or a related
field. Candidates are expected to have strong computational skills,
excitement to work on a new research subject, a good publication
record, a high level of independence, curiosity and creativity, and
an interest in working in an international and interdisciplinary
research environment. <br>
<br>
The successful candidate will work with Prof. Christian Franzke and
Prof. Axel Timmermann to determine how anthropogenic global warming
and natural climate variability will influence human health and will
develop a tick-borne disease model. We will be using ensemble Earth
system model future projections and km-scale climate model
simulations together with vector habitat models to investigate how
climate change impacts human and planetary health. Furthermore, we
will develop a tick-borne disease model. Ticks are the second
biggest transmitters of vector-borne diseases, behind mosquitoes.<br>
<br>
The IBS Center for Climate Physics (ICCP), (<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://iccp.ibs.re.kr">http://iccp.ibs.re.kr</a>)
directed by Prof. Axel Timmermann, is dedicated to advancing the
understanding of natural climate variability, man-made climate
change and their impacts on the hydrological cycle, regional
processes, ice-sheets, and sea level. The ICCP is a leading center
for Earth system dynamics and predictability, and integrated climate
system science and climate modeling. The ICCP is generously funded
through the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) (<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://ibs.re.kr">http://ibs.re.kr</a>). <br>
<br>
The ICCP is located in Busan, the second largest city in South Korea
and the ninth largest port city in the world. Surrounded by ocean
and mountains, the city has a dramatic natural background. From
designer cafes, international movie and art festivals, award-winning
restaurants to temples at the end of hiking trails, Busan has
something to offer for everyone.<br>
<br>
Please submit a cover letter, a short statement of your research
interests, curriculum vitae, the name of 2 references, and up to
three publications (all documents combined in 1 PDF file) to Ms.
Jenny Choi (<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:hahadaye@pusan.ac.kr">hahadaye@pusan.ac.kr</a>). If you have any further questions
regarding this position, please contact Christian Franzke
(<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:christian.franzke@pusan.ac.kr">christian.franzke@pusan.ac.kr</a>). Review of applications starts on
31st July 2024, and will continue until the position is filled.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
Christian<br>
