A postdoctoral research scholar position is available immediately in the laboratory of Dr. Belinda Akpa at North Carolina State University. The postdoc will work closely with plant cell biologists in the Rojas-Pierce lab to develop a multi-scale model bridging intra-cellular protein dynamics with evolution of cell morphology by predicting organelle fusion dynamics (NSF #1918746).
Applicants must have their Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering, Bioengineering, Mathematical Biology, or a related field. Experience with any of the following is particularly desirable: parameter estimation and uncertainty quantification, statistical inference, machine learning, or quantitative image analysis. The appointment is on an annual basis and renewable for up to 3 years. Preference will be given to applicants with a demonstrated facility with cross-disciplinary communication and experience with computational modeling that includes working with varied experimental datasets.
