Positions in biological modeling and simulation in Amsterdam, The  
Netherlands


Within the Netherlands Consortium for Systems Biology (NCSB),  
biologists, computer scientists, physicists and mathematicians of  
Dutch universities and research institutes have joint forces to  
develop innovative systems biology approaches for tackling  
challenging, multi-factorial biological problems related to human  
health, plant sciences, and white biotechnology.

Computer modeling and simulation are central to this highly  
multidisciplinary effort. NCSB’s core modeling group Biomodeling and  
Biosystems Analysis at CWI, the Dutch national research institute for  
mathematics and computer science, develops innovative simulation  
approaches and coordinates modeling projects at the participating  
institutes.



The Biomodeling and Biosystems Analysis group invites applications for  
the following positions:

Postdoctoral researcher

Modeling dynamics and evolution of hierarchically regulated,  
eukaryotic gene networks
See: http://www.cwi.nl/en/node/1044

PhD student
Cell-based modeling of blood vessel formation
See http://www.cwi.nl/en/node/1045

Scientific programmer / PhD student
Bringing modeling and simulation to the biologist’s lab bench
See http://www.cwi.nl/en/node/1043


Requirements for all positions:

-       A scientific background in simulation and modeling: a degree  
in theoretical biology or  computational physics, computational  
science, or equivalent experience

-       Able to communicate with scientists in biology and mathematics

-       Good programming skills in C++ or equivalent

-       Minimum academic degree: for postdoc, PhD; for PhD, M.Sc.; for  
programmer, B.Sc.
