Dear CAST colleagues, Cornell University is conducting a search in BEE for someone working on systems engineering (link to position announcement: https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/12546) to fill an Assistant Professor position. The successful candidate will be responsible for developing a nationally recognized research program in one or more areas of complex systems engineering such as, but not limited to: • Developing quantitative, predictive and computational modeling of food-water-energy systems that increase our decision support capability for critical systems; • Multi-disciplinary and multi-scale (with emphasis on a larger scale) representations of food-water-energy systems with safety and/or security in mind • Using data, network and computing resources for autonomous reasoning and for synergizing robots and humans to improve efficiency, productivity, and sustainability; • Real-time, high-resolution forecasting of plant development, yield and pests, energy/water expenditure, and agricultural sustainability using a mixture of structural models, AI, spatial statistics and machine learning; • Using data and mathematical models for analysis of the ecosystem services of interconnected food, water and/or energy systems in affecting human well-being; • Exploiting new data streams to advance biological system adaptation, resilience, stress mitigation and pest resistance. Please encourage any appropriate candidates to apply. Best regards, Fengqi ..................................................... Fengqi You, PhD Roxanne E. and Michael J.
