Research Assistant/associate Computational Biology
2 weeks ago
Applications are invited for a Research Assistant/Research Associate position in the group of Professor Henrik Jönsson at the Sainsbury Laboratory, Cambridge University, to carry out fundamental research in the field of Computational Morphodynamics in plants.
The shoot apical meristem is a stem cell niche in plants instructive in determining the development of the above-ground part of the plant. Multiple factors are involved in the regulation of differentiation and growth of the cells in the tissue and computational models are required to quantitatively understand how these factors are integrated. The project will focus on computational modelling of gene regulatory networks, hormone signalling and transport and/or mechanics for predicting tissue shape and dynamics with the aim to better understand the maintenance of the stem cell niche, its plasticity to external cues, and its ability to regenerate. It will include development and use of quantitative analysis tools for 4D microscopy data to be used for model development and validation. The successful applicant should have or build a strong interest in solving problems related to plant development and they will have the opportunity to develop skills in advanced live microscopy and plant and molecular biology techniques.
Where a PhD has yet to be awarded the appointment will initially be made at Research Assistant level and amended to Research Associate upon the award of PhD.
Fixed-term: The funds for this post are available for 2 years in the first instance.
The University has a responsibility to ensure that all employees are eligible to live and work in the UK.
