Postdoctoral and senior research positions in COMPUTATIONAL CELL BIOLOGY 
We seek outstanding
candidates on junior and senior levels to work on computational modeling
of signaling and gene networks in mammalian cells at Systems Biology
Ireland, University College Dublin. Ongoing projects include the temporal
and spatial dynamics of receptor tyrosine kinase signaling and transcriptional
networks that govern cell proliferation, differentiation and motility
(supported by a multi-PI grant to Profs. Boris Kholodenko, Walter Kolch
and Zoltan Neufeld). The successful applicant will work closely with
experimentalists at the interface between mathematics, engineering and
biology in a multi disciplinary research community at Systems Biology
Ireland. This presents a unique opportunity for creative individuals
who want to work at the cutting-edge of systems biology.
You will be a part of an interdisciplinary team with national and international collaborations in the field of systems biology. The following skills and qualifications are required: 1) PhD in Biophysics, Chemical Engineering, Mathematics, or Biochemistry and evidence of practical work experience in the systems biology of signal transduction; 2) knowledge and experience of advanced mathematical modelling, including non-linear systems and non-linear dynamics, and 3) basic knowledge of cell/molecular biology. Understanding of probability theory and statistics is a plus. The complexity of the relevant problems requires at least a two years initial commitment.
Benefits and salary commensurate with
experience. Individuals with an interest in Systems Biology are encouraged
to apply.
Salary Scale: €40,000 - €50,000;
for experienced researcher up to €76,000.
