Postdoc in Dynamic modelling in Systems Biology at Wageningen University , UK-PhD Computational, Systems, Mathematical Biology-Apply

Description & Details: We are looking for an enthusiastic, motivated Postdoc on Systems Biology with a strong background in mathematical modelling of dynamic systems, expertise in modelling metabolism and/or host-pathogen interactions being a bonus. The candidate should apply the concepts of systems biology to enhance our understanding of the fundamental principles of signalling, regulatory and most prominently metabolism in living organisms, to generate a mechanistic understanding leading to new hypothesis and model driven experimentation.

Using an interdisciplinary approach the candidate should be able to build detailed dynamic models accounting for key elements of bacterial organisms, specifically of Mycoplasma pneumoniae. The final goal is integrating the generated models in a modelling framework associating genotype and phenotype and leading  to the development of testable hypothesis to transform M. pneumoniae in an optimal chassis for synthetic biology. The candidate should have working experience in mathematical modelling of dynamic systems,  experimental design, and analysis of systems exhibiting complex dynamic behaviour.
