Postdoctoral Fellow Computational Biology - Natural Computing Monash University



Research Fellow

Monash University

An exciting opportunity exists for early career and more established
researchers to join an ARC funded research program at the intersection
of computational biology and natural computing.

The project investigates the principles of self-organization in
biological systems, particularly in social insects, and utilizes these
principles to design new computational solutions for hard optimization
problems. Project details are available at http://www.csse.monash.edu.au/~berndm/CDM.

The successful applicant will have a PhD and preferably some years of
postdoctoral research experience in a relevant field, such as
theoretical biology, computer science, statistical physics, or a
related area of applied mathematics. The project requires a keen
interest in inter-disciplinary work and the ability to communicate
well across disciplinary boundaries. The ideal candidate has expertise
in Simulation, Stochastic Modelling or Dynamic Systems. Knowledge in
Behavioral Biology (Entomology) is an advantage.

The project has nodes at Monash University, Melbourne, and The
University of Sydney, as well as strong collaborations with
international partners and offers the opportunity to spend time at
other locations of the project.

We invite full-time and part-time applications for appointment as
Research Fellow Level A/B.
All applications must include a curriculum vitae, indicative
publications if available, contact details of two referees and must
address the selection criteria.

Salary range: $60,019 - $64,427 / $67,818 - $80,535 pa Level A PhD/
