[Statlist] TR: Short term R/F position at Wollongong

[TILLE Yves]

Dear All

Matt Wand has a short term Research Fellow position available at Wollongong which he has asked me to circulate. It may suit an adventurous post-doc who wants to take a year or so out and travel down to the southern hemisphere to do some interesting research (and have a look at Oz at the same time) ....

Feel free to pass on to anyone that you think might be interested. All enquiries to Matt.

Cheers

Ray
