W2/W3-Professorship (open rank) in "Epidemiology and Biometry" (m/f/d)

The professorship will be assigned to the newly established Center for Data Science and Artificial Intelligence. Depending on individual qualifications, the appointment may be made either as a civil servant or an employee under salary grade W2/W3. Depending on suitability, an initial temporary appointment may also be considered.

Position profile

Applicants are expected to represent teaching, research, and service in the fields of epidemiology and biometry, specifically within the context of veterinary medicine and biology.

As regards research, the successful candidate is expected to devote themselves to independent contributions in interdisciplinary epidemiological studies, with a particular emphasis on animal health and One Welfare. This includes continuing the current activities as a WHO Collaborating Centre for Research and Training for Health at the Human-Animal-Environment Interface. The portfolio encompasses methods development for epidemiological studies and models as well as the interpretation of studies. Furthermore, the successful candidate should develop modern biometric methods, including their adaptation and application for veterinary research, and contribute to research data management, for example by making heterogeneous data from different sources usable for epidemiological and biometric modeling. Independent acquisition of third-party funding is required, as is participation in existing research networks at the University of Veterinary Medicine Hannover (TiHo), and willingness to help establish new research collaborations.

The position holder should participate in teaching in veterinary medicine, in the master’s program “Animal Biology and Biomedical Sciences,” and in TiHo’s PhD programs. In particular, the successful candidate is expected to teach compulsory epidemiological and biometric subjects in veterinary medicine and biology at TiHo and in joint degree programs with other universities in Hannover.

In the area of service, biometric consulting should be provided, thereby complementing other data science consulting services (such as research data management and artificial intelligence) of the Center for Data Science and Artificial Intelligence at TiHo.

Requirements

An international research profile with several years of experience as demonstrated by excellent publications and independent acquisition of third-party funding in the field of epidemiology and biometrics with applications in veterinary medicine and biology is required. Additionally, experience with (inter-)national collaborations as well as with respectful and collaborative leadership and management skills are expected.

Further requirements include

  • a completed degree in a natural science, veterinary or human medicine,
  • as well as pedagogical aptitude and teaching experience,
  • a doctoral degree, habilitation, or equivalent scientific achievements.

Existing evidence of courses in university didactics and results of teaching evaluations should be submitted with the application. Further requirements for employment are regulated in § 25 of the Lower Saxony Higher Education Act (NHG).

The University of Veterinary Medicine Hannover Foundation is committed to increasing the number of female professors. Women are expressly encouraged to apply (§ 21 sec. 3 NHG). Disabled applicants will be given special consideration if equally qualified.
