Boulder invites applications for a post-doctoral researcher
position in <b>demography and sociology.</b> The researcher
will work with a team on an NSF-funded project to integrate US
Census tract-level summary data with PUMS microdata, using
maximum likelihood estimation and dasymetric modeling. The
project forms a collaboration with geographer-demographers at
the University of Tennessee Center for Business and Economic
Research. This is a two year position (24 months) of
full-time research. </span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
