The appointee will be required to create agent-based models (within a generic framework) for population dynamics of invasive and endangered animal species to simulate population genetic data. Using the method of Approximate Bayesian Computation (ABC) the simulated data will be compared to real data set to estimate cryptic population parameters from genetic data such as growth rates and dispersal patterns. The initial focus of the work will be on modelling the invasion of foxes into Tasmania. The closing date for this position is the 13th of May. More information and how to apply can be found in the attached position description and at the University website: http://www.canberra.edu.au/hr/jobs (position number 11/2059).
