Postdoc Theoretical Biophysics Across Scales

Descrizione

Postdoc Theoretical Biophysics Across Scales Sintesi in italiano (traduzione automatica): Il ruolo di Ricercatore post-dottorato in fisica biomedica presso il dipartimento di Bionanoscienza della TU Delft si concentra sull'indagine del trasferimento di informazioni in sistemi dinamici, da scale molecolari a macroscopic. Il candidato ideale deve possedere un dottorato recente in fisica teorica e una laurea in fisica, con esperienza in teoria dell'informazione e fisica stocastica applicata ai dati biologici. Le mansioni principali includono la collaborazione sperimentale, l'insegnamento e la gestione di progetti di ricerca indipendenti. La posizione è temporanea, con un contratto di 2 anni e un orario di lavoro di 38 ore settimanali. È previsto un pacchetto retributivo competitivo e opportunità di formazione continua. Job description Living systems process and respond to signals, and these responses range molecular or electrical changes inside a (neuronal) cell to macroscopic behavioural responses of animals. Both signals and responses occur over time, in a dynamically changing landscape. The goal of this position is to investigate information transfer in dynamical systems, ranging from molecular to macroscopic scales. The position is theoretical but relies on experimental collaborations that span these scales. Interest in developing at least one of these directions is welcome! The postdoctoral researcher will be a member of the Bauer group at the Bionanoscience department at TUDelft. Job requirements The applicant should hold a recent PhD in Theoretical Biophysics and an undergraduate degree in Physics, with a background in information theory and stochastic physics applied to biological data. Further requirements include past experience with: Teaching and advising undergraduates. Experimental collaborations, ideally having resulted in publication. Independent research projects. Projects in the context of molecular processes, ie. chemical or mechanical information transfer.
