PhD Studentship: Welcome Trust award in Medical StatisticsStatistical Methods for Dealing with Item Non-Response in the NATSAL 2010 Sex Survey
Applications are invited for a fully funded three year PhD studentship, funded by the Wellcome Trust, in the field of Medical Statistics.
The British National Survey of Sexual Attitudes and Lifestyles (NATSAL) is the only representative sex survey of the general population. It was previously conducted in 1990 and 2000, and will be repeated in 2010. NATSAL findings have frequently informed sexual and reproductive health policy in Britain, and the 2010 survey will enable estimates of key parameters to be updated and changes over time to be assessed. As with all large surveys, missing data create problems for the analysis of the NATSAL. Missing data arise both from potential participants declining to take part in the survey and from participants not answering all the survey questions. This PhD project will concentrate on the latter type of missing data. It will investigate how statistical methods for handling missing data can be applied to the NATSAL and how the sensitivity of the survey findings to assumptions about the mechanisms determining which data are missing can be assessed.

Statistical Methods for Dealing with Item Non-Response in the NATSAL 2010 Sex Survey
Applications are invited for a fully funded three year PhD studentship, funded by the Wellcome Trust, in the field of Medical Statistics.
The British National Survey of Sexual Attitudes and Lifestyles (NATSAL) is the only representative sex survey of the general population. It was previously conducted in 1990 and 2000, and will be repeated in 2010. NATSAL findings have frequently informed sexual and reproductive health policy in Britain, and the 2010 survey will enable estimates of key parameters to be updated and changes over time to be assessed. As with all large surveys, missing data create problems for the analysis of the NATSAL. Missing data arise both from potential participants declining to take part in the survey and from participants not answering all the survey questions. This PhD project will concentrate on the latter type of missing data. It will investigate how statistical methods for handling missing data can be applied to the NATSAL and how the sensitivity of the survey findings to assumptions about the mechanisms determining which data are missing can be assessed.
The project will involve assessing existing statistical methods, adapting them to the needs of the NATSAL data and, possibly, the development of new statistical methodology. The student will be registered for PhD study and based at the Centre for Sexual Health & HIV Research, University College London, where he or she will work together with the NATSAL team including Dr Andrew Copas, and will spend one day a week at the Medical Research Council Biostatistics Unit in Cambridge with Dr Shaun Seaman, who will be the lead supervisor. The student will also meet periodically with Dr James Carpenter at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, who completes the supervisory team.
The three institutions (UCL, MRC BSU, LSHTM) are all at the forefront of international research in medical statistics, and the links with each will provide the student with access to leading researchers, many other PhD students, training opportunities and regular seminars.
Applicants should have completed, or expect to have before starting their studies, a Masters degree in Statistics or equivalent. The application pack including UCL graduate study application form, further details of this project and how to apply, is available from Kay Stratton, kstratton@gum.ucl.ac.uk and 020 7380 9878. The deadline for applications is 26th March 2009, and interviews are expected to take place on 2nd April 2009.
The studentship provides a stipend for three years of around £19,500 p.a. in the first year, increasing subsequently, and meets the tuition fees for UK/EU students. Applications from UK, EU and overseas students are encouraged. For students from outside the EU, it is possible that alternative UCL Overseas Research Scholarships could cover the difference between the overseas fees and the UK/EU fees subject to a separate application and selection process (deadline 1/5/09, further details in the application pack). Applicants must fulfill the normal academic requirements for acceptance for postgraduate study at UCL.
The studentship is available to start in September 2009.
Informal inquires regarding the studentship can be made to Dr Shaun Seaman (shaun.seaman@mrc-bsu.cam.ac.uk ) or Dr Andrew Copas (acopas@gum.ucl.ac.uk )
Additional information about the Centre for Sexual Health & HIV Research and the MRC Biostatistics Unit can be found at http://www.ucl.ac.uk/sexual-health/ and http://www.mrc-bsu.cam.ac.uk, respectively.

UCL Taking Action For Equality.
PhD in Enhance Predictive Capabilities of Flow Models of the Shallow Subsurface
The Geotechnology Department comprises four Sections: Applied Geology,
Applied Geophysics and Petrophysics, GeoEngineering, and Petroleum
Engineering. Its research activities are strongly interdisciplinary and
aimed at the development and dissemination of innovative, integrated
geo-technologies in the fields of subsurface imaging, characterisation
and engineering for cost-effective and sustainable utilisation of the
subsurface.
The Section of Applied Geology aims to develop high-resolution
quantitative models of geological heterogeneity in clastic sedimentary
basins on different spatial scales. The models serve to enhance our
understanding of clastic sedimentary systems as a whole, and will be
applied in the discovery, use and sustainable management of subsurface
resources. We strive to reduce the inherent uncertainty in numerical
modelling by developing tools for quantitative prediction of key
subsurface properties such as size, shape, spatial distribution and
internal heterogeneity of sediment bodies.
JOB DESCRIPTION Geological reservoir models used in hydrocarbon and
groundwater exploitation are typically based on stochastic-geometric
interpolation methods. Such methods generate solutions that are locally
optimal, but are not constrained by the large-scale geological setting
of the reservoir. The aims of this project are (1) to develop a
post-processor for an existing low-resolution, basin-scale process-based
model of fluvio-deltaic drainage networks and stratigraphy, which is
conditioned to large-scale basin geometry and geological boundary
conditions. The post-processor should generate explicit, object-based,
stochastic realizations of the small-scale reservoir architecture (low
and high sinuosity channel belts) to permit analysis of sand-body
connectivity, and its controls on fluid flow and mixing of sediments
with different provenance; (2) to better characterize subsurface
heterogeneity and reduce the solution space associated with well data
relative to current (geometric) models; (3) to test the method by
performing flow simulations on synthetic and real-world reservoirs, in
order to study the dispersal of contaminants in the shallow subsurface
and propose strategies for groundwater exploitation.
REQUIREMENTSCandidates should have an MSc degree in Earth Sciences
(Geology, Geophysics, Physical Geography) or Engineering (Engineering
Geology, Hydraulic Engineering, Petroleum Engineering). Candidates with
demonstrable expertise in geological or flow modelling and a keen
interest in optimization problems are specifically encouraged to apply.
CONDITIONS OF EMPLOYMENTThe successful candidate will be employed by
Delft University of Technology for a fixed period of four years within
which he/she is expected to write a doctoral thesis.
TU Delft offers an attractive benefits package, including a flexible
work week, free high-speed Internet access from home, and the option of
assembling a customized compensation and benefits package (the 'IKA').
Salary and benefits are in accordance with the Collective Labour
Agreement for Dutch Universities.
Delft University of Technology strives to increase the number of women
in higher academic positions; women are therefore especially encouraged
to apply. APPLICATION
To apply, please send a detailed CV along with a letter of application
by 15 April, 2009 to: recruitment-citg@tudelft.nl
recruitment-citg@tudelft.nl > . When applying for this position,
make sure to mention vacancy number CITG09-03.
