Based at SAiGENCI, College of Health 36 Months Fixed Term contract (1 FTE) Level A - $102,024 - $109,307 per annum plus an employer contribution of 17% superannuation applies At Adelaide University, we create the opportunities you need to achieve your ambitions – because when you thrive, we thrive. We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Research Fellow with strong expertise in computational and systems biology to lead the integrative modelling components of our NHMRC-funded project. This role is central to redefining the STAT3 signalling dogma by mapping its time-, stimulus-, and cell lineage-resolved interactome using cutting-edge technologies, including unbiased proteomic mapping (APEX2), iPSC-derived lineages, and functional genomics (CROP-Seq). The successful candidate will be responsible for the integrative analysis of large-scale multi-omics datasets and the development of predictive computational models to identify complex regulatory mechanisms of STAT3 signalling networks and pathway rewiring in varying biological contexts. Work that matters The Integrative Network Modelling Group within the Computational Systems Oncology program at SAiGENCI sits at the intersection of mathematics, computation, and cancer biology. We develop mechanistic, predictive models of cellular decision-making to address both fundamental and translational challenges in oncology, including drug resistance, pathway rewiring, and the discovery of new therapeutic vulnerabilities. Beyond cancer specifically, our research explores broader questions regarding cell fate decisions, the hidden dynamics of complex signalling networks, and their underlying regulatory mechanisms. Our approach is deliberately cancer-agnostic, focusing on principles that generalize across various tumour types while exploring the governing and design principles that dictate complex signalling behaviour. A defining feature of our group is the tight integration of dynamic network modelling with experimental and clinical insight, enabling us to move beyond mere description and toward robust, actionable prediction. If you are a talented systems biologist driven by both curiosity and discipline, we want you on our team! The team The role is ideal for candidates with a strong background in applied mathematics, physics, engineering, or computational biology who are excited to apply rigorous modelling approaches to real biological and biomedical problems.
