Two Marie-Curie PHD Positions in computational systems biology at IIM-CSIC, VIGO (SPAIN)

Two MARIE-CURIE Early Stage Researcher (ESR9 and ESR10) positions at
IIM-CSIC, Vigo (Spain) in the field of Computational Systems Biology:

Fellow ESR9 will focus on mathematical model selection and optimal
experimental design in systems biology. The main objective will be to use
optimal experimental design methods to devise the necessary dynamic
experiments for E. coli homeostasis modelling. Candidates should have a
strong background in mathematical modelling, statistics and nonlinear
analysis.

Fellow ESR10 will focus on advanced model identification and parameter
estimation in systems biology. The main objective will be to devise new
model calibration methods and to apply them to compute the parameters of E.
coli homeostasis dynamic models from experimental (input-output) data.
Candidates should have a strong background in mathematical modelling,
statistics and, ideally, software development and high performance
scientific computing.




CONDITIONS

Early Stage Researcher means less than 4 years of experience, e.g. PhD
student.

These ESRs will be hired for 36 months each and will be expected to pursue a
PhD. Candidates must be in possession of a relevant Masters degree (or very
close to obtaining it) at the time of appointment. The position requires a
good knowledge of English language (Spanish is not mandatory) and the
interest to work in the interdisciplinary field of systems biology.

Salary will be excellent, according to EU regulations (Marie Curie ITN Early
Stage Researcher). The network will provide an excellent opportunity for
scientific and personal development, with regular training events and
meetings across Europe.
