We have two postdoctoral fellowships available for up-to three years, with competitive salary and travel support. The two postdocs are expected to contribute to active research projects, including:

1. Development of statistical methodology, algorithms, and theory for analyzing complex graphs and dynamical systems,

2. Analysis of coordinated regulatory mechanisms driving the cell cycle, metabolism, and environmental responses in yeast, bacteria, and cancer systems,

3. Analysis of signaling and metabolic pathways in dynamic chemical contexts, and

4. Development of dynamic models of coalition formation and stability.

Portion of the research related to these fellowships will be coordinated with activities of the upcoming SAMSI program on 2010-11 Complex Graphs.

The ideal candidate has a strong research background in statistics and/or machine learning, is interested in applications to computational biology, has a few high quality publications or pre-prints, is able to communicate and work with collaborators (students, postdocs and faculty), and is able to carry out research and develop ideas independently. Good programming skill and solid mathematics/algorithms/graph theory background are highly desirable.

To formally apply, please send CV, research statement, and 2 letters of recommendations to both Betsey Cogswell ([email protected]) and myself ([email protected]). I’ll answer to all informal inquiries, please addressed those directly to me [Airoldi].

Looks like fun. I particularly like item 4 on the above list.
