Mathematical Modeller for Microbiome Research
22 hours ago
Company Overview
The Earlham Institute seeks an exceptional Mathematical Modeller to join our team in the field of microbiome research. In this role, you will develop mathematical models of microbial communities, integrating multiple sources of data to advance our understanding of these complex systems.About the Role
This is a full-time post for three years, offering a competitive salary range of £39,240 to £50,880 per annum, depending on qualifications and experience. The successful candidate will be responsible for developing predictive mechanistic models that integrate data from various sources, including abundances, metabolites, and expression levels. This will involve incorporating aspects of dynamical systems, such as ODEs and SDEs, as well as metabolic modelling. You will also be expected to apply numerical optimisation methods, including linear programming, Bayesian statistics, and machine learning techniques, to fit the models to data.Key Responsibilities
You will work with metagenome-metabolome samples from clinical and controlled reactor experiments to understand the role of therapeutic diets in treating Crohn's disease. The ideal candidate will have a PhD in mathematics, physics, bioinformatics, or statistics, or a related subject area with a strong focus on mathematical modelling. A First-class degree in any science-related field is essential, and a proven track record in scientific writing and oral research presentations is required. Command line bioinformatics skills and knowledge of software programming in languages like R, Python, or C/C++ are also necessary. Experience in supervising graduate students and leading analysis of complex data sets is desirable.Benefits
This position offers a comprehensive benefits package, including a generous pension scheme, flexible working hours, and access to training and development opportunities. As a Disability Confident employer, we guarantee to offer an interview to all disabled applicants who meet the essential criteria for this vacancy. We encourage all qualified candidates to apply and welcome those from diverse backgrounds.-
