Your next career opportunity The Research Fellow in Mathematical Modelling of Multicellular Interfaces is expected to help develop models of interfaces within multicellular systems. These models will be part of a multicellular modelling and simulation framework being developed as part of the Australian Research Council's (ARC) Discovery Project "Bridging biological boundaries: modelling to explore the role of interfaces" awarded to Prof James Osborne (Melbourne), Prof Jennifer Flegg (Melbourne) and Dr Stuart Johnston (Melbourne) in collaboration with Dr Yohan Davit (CNRS, Toulouse) and Dr Sakia Feytag (WEHI, Melbourne). The Discovery Project addresses the critical knowledge gap in how "interfaces" - the boundaries between distinct cell populations or between cells and their environment - drive the development and function of complex biological systems. Within this project the Research Fellow will drive the development of the unified multicellular mathematical framework within the open-source Chaste library. The appointee will be a member of the Melbourne Mathematical Biology Group at the School of Mathematics and Statistics, reporting to Prof James Osborne. Visits to Toulouse (France) will be an important part of the project. What you will deliver:Develop and Implement Multicellular Models: Build and integrate high fidelity interface models in the Chaste framework linking subcellular mechanisms (proliferation, differentiation) with multicellular mechanical and biochemical interactions.Apply Advanced Statistical Methods: Perform Bayesian parameter estimation and identifiability analyses to evaluate and select model formulations that capture interface dynamics.Translate Models into Case Studies and Collaborate: Support and adapt models for wound healing, biofilm development and tumour plasticity studies; liaise with interdisciplinary partners and undertake project visits to Toulouse.Research Leadership and Dissemination: Lead technique and application focused publications, present findings at conferences, contribute to grant proposals, and co supervise PhD/MSc students.Contribute to Teaching, Service and Compliance: Provide student mentoring and training, participate in School activities and committees, and maintain required professional development and compliance records.You may be a great fit if:You are close to completing, or have completed, a PhD in Mathematics, Statistics, Physics, or a related quantitative discipline.You have demonstrated experience in mathematical modelling and or statistical analysis.You show a strong aptitude for research, supported by a sound publication record in relevant areas, commensurate with your experience and opportunities.You are able to prepare research reports and manuscripts suitable for academic publication.You have experience developing computational simulations.For further information please refer to the attached PD.
