Postdoctoral Position in Dynamics of Gene Regulatory Networks at Montana State University

[Eli]

Applications are invited for the position of Postdoctoral Associate in Department of Mathematical Sciences at Montana State University. The postdoctoral associate will work in the research group of Prof. Tomas Gedeon on development and applications of a new modeling platform (DSGRN) for dynamics of gene regulatory networks. This work is done in collaboration with groups at Rutgers and Duke Universities in a highly collaborative and interdisciplinary environment.

DSGRN (Dynamic signatures generated by regulatory networks) provides a comprehensive description of dynamics across parameter space of gene regulatory networks. The projects range from applications to cell cycle dynamics, control of network phenotypes in cancer models, construction of potential networks from time series data to theoretical aspects of DSGRN description of dynamics, development and efficient computational implementation of new algorithms.

A successful candidate will have background in dynamical systems and modeling, some ability to use Matlab and desire to work in intersection of mathematics and cell biology.

An ideal candidate will have additional background in Python, data science techniques of time series analysis, and prior exposure to cell biology and gene regulation modeling.
