Type of job: full-time
Location: Brno/Drasov, Czech Republic, EU
Duration: 1.5 years
Description:
Applications are invited for 2 PostDocs to work on cyanobacterial systems biology. Within the project "CyanoTeam", the objective of the modeling group is to collaborate closely with an experimental as well as a computer science group in order to develop an integrated model of a cyanobacterial cell. The project enables experimental biologists to study questions like stress response, metabolic rhythms, and biofuel production by using high-end lab equipment including photobioreactors, imaging flow cytometer, fluorescence activated cell sorter, GC-MS, and Orbitrap LC/MS. The computational biologists develop mathematical models of the intra- and extracellular processes involved. For example, they reconstruct metabolic networks, investigate circadian clocks, and determine carbon exchange rates. In particular, they formulate testable hypothesis about possible mechanisms for the experimental observations.
Requirements:
Applicants should have a PhD in mathematics, physics or a related field and a strong interest in computational modeling of biological systems. The project language is English.
Benefits:
Salary 35.000 CZK/month (Junior PostDoc) and 40.000 CZK/month (Senior PostDoc) Health insurance and social security International work environment within the CyanoNetwork (EU, USA, Israel)
Project duration until March 2015
Positions expected to be filled immediately
Application:
Applications should include a cover letter, a detailed CV, a statement of research interests, and the names and email addresses of 3 potential reviewers (compiled in one pdf).
