2. From stk 9021 student Dennis Christensen: Summer job oppportunity at FFI

Hopefully you are all finishing up your obligs for tomorrow's deadline. I wish to inform you of a summer job opportunity at the Norwegian Defence Research Establishment (FFI), working with statistical analysis of the sensitivity of explosives. This is mathematically equivalent to the setup in exercise 4 in the oblig (usually called bio-assay or current status data), and will serve as an introduction to Bayesian nonparametrics and inference with censored data. *The deadline for applying is November 15*. If you are interested in applying, please click on the link below (in Norwegian). Please do not hesitate to drop me an email (dennisch@math.uio.no) if you have any questions. I will provide more information in next week's lecture (Wednesday November 10).
