Postdoctoral position in mathematical biology at the Department
of Mathematical Sciences at New Jersey Institute of Technology
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position in the field of
mathematical and computational biology in the Department of
Mathematical Sciences at NJIT. The position is initially for one
year starting September 1, 2018, with the possibility of renewal of
one additional year, subject to satisfactory performance. In
addition to research duties, the candidate is expected to teach one
course per academic year. Currently, research interests of the NJIT
mathematical biology group are focused on mathematical and
computational neuroscience, perception of timing and rhythm, cell
physiology, circadian rhythms, cell calcium dynamics, and
biofluids, emphasizing the applications of parameter estimation
techniques, stochastic analysis and the theory of dynamical systems
and partial differential equations to problems in mathematical
biology.
Candidates should hold a PhD in applied mathematics or a related
discipline. To apply, follow the link below to submit a cover letter
with a brief research statement, a CV, and names and email addresses
of three references.

NJIT is in the University Heights neighborhood next to vibrant
downtown Newark, about 12 miles west of New York City. The
Department of Mathematical Sciences has close collaborative ties to
the Department of Biological Sciences at NJIT. Excellent potential
for outside collaboration is also afforded by the close geographic
proximity of NJIT to other prominent centers for biological research
such as the Center for Molecular and Behavioral Neuroscience at
Rutgers-Newark, New Jersey Medical School, NYU, Columbia University,
and Rockefeller University.
NJIT is an Equal Opportunity / Affirmative Action Employer and
strongly encourages women, minorities, and persons with disabilities
to apply.
Inquires can be sent to Dr. Victor Matveev at matveev@njit.edu.
