The Perlmutter Lab at UC Berkeley is seeking applications for an Assistant Researcher that specializes in the analysis of wide-field imaging and spectroscopic data from ground-based (e.g., Subaru/HSC) and space-based observatories (e.g., HST, JWST, and the recently announced Lazuli), as well as the design and planning of related observing programs.

The Assistant Researcher will be charged with performing independent research aimed at improving the precision and accuracy of observational cosmology experiments, namely those that rely on measuring luminosity distance with redshift, and particularly measurements of the expansion rate. The candidate will lead efforts to develop and/or adapt cutting-edge image analysis and statistical techniques for the purpose of improving the precision of such luminosity distance cosmology experiments, with a lean toward space-based datasets.

We expect the candidate to play a leadership role in this research, which is expected to require a small to mid-size research effort involving grad students and/or postdocs, and ideally multiple funding sources. They will present their research at inter/national conferences and publish work in peer-reviewed journals, either as lead author or in a mentorship role to others.

The Assistant Researcher's routes of inquiry would help advance key UC Berkeley cosmology initiatives, in part by bringing together a range of experts who can apply novel advanced statistical techniques not typically deployed in the field.

About DSUS

Data Science Undergraduate Studies (DSUS) offers a range of academic, co-curricular, and enrichment programs-including the Data Science major and minor-with a wide-reaching impact both across UC Berkeley and beyond.

Designed in collaboration with faculty from across Berkeley, Data Science invests students with deep technical knowledge, expertise in how to apply that knowledge in a field of their choosing, and an understanding of the social and human contexts and ethical implications of how data are collected, analyzed, and used. This combination positions graduates to help inform and develop solutions to a range of pressing challenges, from adapting industry to a new world of data to amplifying learning in education to helping communities recover from disaster.

DSUS is part of the College of Computing, Data Science, and Society (CDSS), which strives to develop, implement, and share high-quality, ethics-oriented, and accessible curricula, educating a diverse student body in data science, computing, and statistics. Core to the college is an understanding of how computing and data science affect equality, equity, and opportunity-and the capacity to respond to social challenges.

DSUS is committed to hiring and developing staff who want to work in a high performing culture that reflects the outstanding work of our faculty and students. DSUS seeks candidates who can support the success of all students through inclusive curriculum, classroom environment, and pedagogy.

Responsibilities

DSUS is seeking outstanding instructors to be appointed in the non-Senate Lecturer title series who can teach small and large courses in several areas. We are particularly interested in instructors who can combine computational and inferential thinking in a way that reflects the new field of Data Science Education.

Fundamentals of Data Science

Principle and Techniques of Data Science

Human Contexts and Ethics of Data

Data and Justice

Data, Inference, and Decisions

Honors Thesis Seminar

Connector Courses: Instructors may be hired to teach Connector Courses that connect Foundations of Data Science with other disciplines, such as neuroscience, legal studies, public health, demography, English or others. Connector courses allow students to apply theoretical concepts from data science to a particular area of interest. Course design and syllabus will leverage the sequence of computational and statistical techniques that students learn in the Foundations course.

Teaching a Data Science course may include holding office hours, assign grades, advise students, prepare course materials (e.g., syllabus), provide clear and prompt feedback on student work, and maintain the course website.

Berkeley Law is generating an applicant pool of qualified instructors should openings arise.

Berkeley Law is one of the premier law schools in the United States. Our programs are demanding, engaging, hands-on, and selective. As with all our faculty, we expect our lecturers to demonstrate a strong commitment to academic rigor and intellectual diversity.

Berkeley Law strives to educate responsible, effective, and forward-thinking advocates who serve the public through legal practice, public policy, academic scholarship, and related fields. In doing so, the school addresses some of society's most pressing challenges by leveraging its strengths in teaching and research to improve law, policy, and public institutions. At the heart of Berkeley Law's public mission is a commitment to access, affordability, and empowering students from all backgrounds to pursue impactful careers across a wide range of professional paths.

The J.D. and LL.M. programs host a diverse and constantly evolving curriculum. Hundreds of courses are offered, including dozens in our top-ranked Law and Technology, Business Law, International Law, Environmental Law, and Social Justice programs.

This pool encompasses courses on criminal law, criminal procedure investigations and adjudication, white-collar crime, the nexus of criminal and immigration law enforcement ("crimmigration"), youth justice, post-conviction remedies, capital punishment, prisons and parole, sentencing, criminal justice theory and policy, and other courses on major and emerging criminal law practice and policy areas.

Instructors for lecture courses are appointed in the Lecturer title; instructors for experiential center courses are appointed to the Field Work Supervisor title. The applicant selected will have important teaching responsibilities, including preparing course materials (such as the syllabus) and maintaining a course website, and will also be expected to hold office hours, assess and offer feedback on student work, assign grades, and advise students.

UC Lecturers and Field Work Supervisors are academic appointees in an organized bargaining unit and are exclusively represented by the American Federation of Teachers - Unit 18.
