CSIRO Postdoctoral Fellowship in Livestock Systems Modelling
CSIRO acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the land, sea and waters, of the area that we live and work on across Australia. We acknowledge their continuing connection to their culture and pay our respects to their Elders past and present. View our vision towards reconciliation
CSIRO Early Research Career (CERC) Postdoctoral Fellowships provide opportunities to scientists and engineers who have completed their doctorate and have less than three years of relevant postdoctoral work experience. These fellowships aim to develop the next generation of future leaders of the innovation system.
This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a multi-organisation, inter-disciplinary team delivering cutting edge research and development in a project supported by an Innovation Grant from the Australian Government’s Future Drought Fund. The project ‘Decide and Thrive’ will develop innovative and regionally relevant livestock ranking strategies to help businesses minimise the impacts of drought and preserve agricultural landscapes.
The successful candidate will work with leaders in the field to develop and/or apply quantitative livestock grazing models to investigate and evaluate drought resilience strategies, and to communicate and liaise with stakeholders to build and deliver successful research outcomes.
