[Corpora-List] Postdoc Position Announcement

[Mark Thomas Joseph]

A postdoctoral research position is available at the School of
Information at the University of Michigan.

Note that this position is for *US citizens* only (apologies...).

The appointment could start either in Fall '07 or Winter '08.

The research will focus on the influence of network characteristics on
information diffusion and change. Specifically, we will be using large
blog and social tagging data sets to model the effect of community
structure on patterns of information diffusion, including its speed of
propagation, eventual reach, and change in content.

For a sample of the flavor of research, please see:

I am looking for someone with a background in one or more of the
following:
* networks
* data mining
* natural language processing

If you're interested, please email your current CV and a brief
statement of interest to Lada Adamic (ladamic at umich.edu)
