Anthropology Professors and Supervisors in Canada

The National Research Council Canada is recruiting a Postdoctoral Fellow in reinforcement learning and vision for a two-year appointment in Hamilton, Canada, within the Automotive and Surface Transportation organizational unit. The fellow will develop a graph-based inverse reinforcement learning framework to analyze and forecast human drivers’ eye-gaze scanpaths under adverse weather conditions. The project will infer reward structures underlying driver gaze behavior, use spectral graph analysis...

Fully funded postdoctoral opportunity in paleoecology and freshwater ecosystems at McGill University, Canada, in the Irene Gregory-Eaves Lab. The project investigates long-term freshwater community and ecosystem dynamics using lake sediment DNA (sedDNA). The research is suited to candidates interested in paleoecology, freshwater ecology, environmental science, sedimentary DNA, metagenomics, and ecosystem change over time. Applicants should hold a PhD in a relevant field, have a maximum of three ...

McGill University in Montréal, Québec, Canada, is recruiting a postdoctoral fellow for a project on long-term freshwater community and ecosystem dynamics using sedimentary DNA (sedDNA). The project will use metagenomic analyses of lake sediment records to reconstruct past food-web dynamics and quantify shifts in ecosystem functions in Quebec lakes. Sedimentary DNA and paleolimnology enable the study of organisms that may not leave subfossils and support broader investigations of freshwater ecolo...
