Notes to applicant:
Located in northern New Mexico, Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) is a multidisciplinary research institution engaged in strategic science on behalf of national security. LANL enhances national security by ensuring the safety and reliability of the U.S. nuclear stockpile, developing technologies to reduce threats from weapons of mass destruction, and solving problems related to energy, environment, infrastructure, health, and global security concerns.
The Statistical Sciences Group was formed in 1967 to provide the Laboratory with a center of expertise in Statistics. The group consists of 21 statistical scientists plus supporting personnel, visiting faculty, students, and postdoctoral fellows. The group currently has expertise in a range of methodologies including Bayesian methods, uncertainty quantification of computer models, design and analysis of experiments, Monte Carlo and computer-intensive methods, reliability, sample planning, spatial modeling, statistical computation, statistical graphics and visualization, and analysis of measurement systems.
Statisticians work in partnership with world-class scientists to develop and apply basic science and technology in areas such as computational science, materials science, physics, energy, geology, climate, astronomy, biology, and chemistry. In addition to questions of national security and nuclear safety and reliability, applications come from other government agencies and industrial partners. Supercomputing and simulation play a large and growing role in many of these disciplines and applications. The group’s work involves development and application of statistical methodology to the scientific questions in these fields, often with a strong focus on computation. The group encourages members to publish and present their work to the wider statistical community.
The Statistical Sciences Group at Los Alamos National Laboratory seeks excellent candidates for challenging careers in Statistics. Successful candidates have experience developing statistical methodology motivated by multidisciplinary collaborations and proven statistical research ability as evidenced by journal publications, technical reports, and/or conference presentations. Verbal and written communication skills for collaboration with scientists in other disciplines are critical.
