The Algorithms and Complexity Group of IDSIA, University of Lugano
(Switzerland), opens one Ph.D. position in the area of approximation
algorithms. The position is supported by the SNSF Grant "Approximation
Algorithms for Network Problems", that already supports another Ph.D.
student and one PostDoc.
The position is for 3 years, with the possibility of an extension by 1
year (subject to approval by SNSF). The gross salary is roughly 50.000
CHF per year (low taxes). There is generous travel support.
The ideal candidate should be bright and creative, and hold (or be
close to obtaining) a Master Degree in Computer Science or related
areas. A solid background in Algorithms, Computational Complexity,
Discrete Mathematics, Probability Theory, and/or Graph Theory is
helpful. A good knowledge of written and spoken English is also
required (while knowledge of Italian is not needed).
Team members will have the opportunity to cooperate with the
Algorithms and Complexity group at IDSIA, which currently consists of
8 researchers. IDSIA offers an international working environment.
Lugano is a tidy and lively town, with a wonderful view on Ceresio
lake and mountains around. Ticino Canton offers many opportunities for
hiking, biking, skiing, etc. Restaurants serve very good (Italian
style!) food.
Any interested candidate should email a detailed CV (including a list
of passed Master degree exams with marks, a list of publications, if
any, and up to 3 references) to "fabrizio@idsia.ch" as soon as
possible. The position will be filled as soon as a strong candidate
will apply. In order to receive full consideration, please email your
CV by the end of July 2016.

attractions,
including the International Antarctic Centre, Orana Park and Willowbank
Wildlife Park.
Christchurch is known internationally as the "Garden City" because of its
spectacular gardens.
Christchurch is also home to a number of excellent cafes, bars and
restaurants.
Many popular destinations such as Kaikoura, Akaroa, Mt Hutt and South
Canterbury are less than two hours drive from Christchurch."

We are seeking one postdoc candidate in the context of a Horizon 2020
European Project, SOUND - Statistical multi-Omics UNDerstanding of
Patient Samples, (European Union – No. 633974).
Scientific Area: Machine Learning and Biostatistics
Required education Level and research experience: PhD in one of the
following areas: machine learning, statistics, computational biology
or related, with a taste for inter-disciplinary research, and with
very good interpersonal skills. Ideally, the person will have a long
experience with machine learning and biostatistics applications to
clinical data and be proficient in computer programming (R, Matlab or
related).
Workplan: SOUND is an international research project funded by the
European Commission (EC) within its Horizon 2020 Research and
Innovation programme "Personalizing Health and Care". Its objective is
to create the bioinformatic tools for statistically informed use of
personal genomic and other omics data in medicine, including cancers

their application to clinical data, in particular cross-cutting
methods for oncology and genetics. The position is set at the cutting
edge of scientific research related to mechanisms of disease,
personalized medicine, genome bioinformatics and statistics, and its
clinical translation. The tasks include: 1) survival analysis of
clinical data; 2) development of robust regression and unsupervised
outlier detection methods; 3) integrative modeling of heterogeneous
patient's data; 4) development of statistical and optimization methods
for high-dimensional data.
Workplace and scientific supervision: The candidate will work in the
Center of Intelligent Systems at the IDMEC (Instituto Superior
Técnico, Lisboa, Portugal, under the supervision of Prof. Susana
Vinga, coordinator of the Systems Engineering in the Life Sciences

*** Second Call for Student Travelling Support ***
22nd ACM International Conference on Intelligent User Interfaces
IUI 2017
St. Raphael Resort, Limassol, Cyprus
March 13-16, 2017
Following the tradition of previous years, we will offer student participation
support provided by SIGCHI to attend the IUI Conference. This support is in
the form of a small stipend to cover the registration fee and partially cover
the costs of travel and living expenses while attending the conference. The
students will be reimbursed for their expenses after the conference. All
students who get travel grants from SIGCHI must send us a paragraph about
their experience and a headshot before they will be reimbursed. You must be
a member of SIGCHI before you apply ($19 dues).
The objective of IUI's student support is to encourage students interested in
subjects related to Intelligent User Interfaces to become active members of
the IUI community. To apply, the student should be actively enrolled as a
student in an academic institution. Priority will be given to students who are
first authors of accepted papers and to participants in the doctoral
consortium. Recipients of the stipend are also expected to help the
conference organization as student volunteers. The level of support will be
determined by the availability of funds and the number of eligible
applications.
The application should include:
1. Full name
2. Email address
3. The school you are attending, your major, and the country in which
the school resides
4. If you will present at the conference, please provide the title of the
submission and its type (e.g., research paper, student consortium, demo).
Please note if you have submitted but have not found out if your submission
has been accepted
5. A short statement describing your research interests and how you
wish to benefit from attending this conference
6. The location you are flying from and the cost for your airfare, as
determined by the availability of low-cost economy fares for travel to the
conference. Please describe any other expenses you expect to accrue, but do
not include registration and housing costs, as they are similar for all students
7. A letter of recommendation from your thesis or doctoral advisor (or
supervising faculty member) sent separately by email to the Student
Consortium Co-Chairs. If you are also applying to the Student Consortium,
one appropriately worded recommendation letter can be used for both
applications, or you may submit a slightly different letter for each application
8. You must be a member of SIGCHI before you apply
The application
The SSTG application has two parts: an application form that is submitted by
the student; and a letter of support from the student's advisor that the
student will attach to his or her application.
More information and a link for submitting an application (available a month
before the deadline, early July 2016) can be found on the SIGCHI website
(http://www.sigchi.org/conferences/funding/student-travel-grant).
Submit your single, combined PDF (except letter of recommendation, must
be a separate PDF to attach to the application) to: PCS by the deadline!
The application round opens in early July, create an account/login to PCS,
and look for the submission link under SIGCHI.
Deadline for applications for student support: August 1st, 2016.
Notification of Results: August 15th, 2016.
