[DMANET] Postdoc on COVID-19 related research project

In the Operations Research group at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) we are looking for a postdoc to work with us on the COVID-19 related research project FiND: Finding the new normal, the power of distinct contacts.



The current Corona crisis has a tremendous global impact. This project will employ operations research techniques and knowledge from complex network theory/graph theory to investigate the impact of different lockdown and social distancing measures on disease spread. Specifically, we want to investigate what kind of contacts can be maintained during peak-spreading when we consider distinct contacts.



We are urgently looking for a postdoc to make this process a success. The postdoc will work with Evelien van der Hurk and David Pisinger.



Deadline for applications is July 1st, the ideal start would be late August/early September 2020.
