Want a job?

It strikes me that I never even considered posting this here. Come work here! We are hiring cool people, at least 2 or 3 of them this year. If you are cool, you should send us your CV. (Those who have worked with me know that I place a premium on cool ideas; the rest of the hiring committee would like to see a Ph.D. and some publications as well. :) The deadline is April 1, and we will have selected our top candidates by that date.

I’ve included the job listing below. Our shortlist is heavy on the health and less on the computer-mediated stuff (by about 2 to 1), so if you know of any bright, newly minted Ph.D.s or associate profs, especially if they work in network structures, visualization, blogs, social effects of ICTs, international effects of ICTs, or something related, please point them my way ASAP!
