- is actively seeking enthusiastic, full-time post-doctoral Flatiron Research Fellows to join its Structural and Molecular Biophysics group.The Structural and Molecular Biophysics team, a collaborative effort between CCB and the- Center for Computational Mathematics (CCM
- ) uses computational tools to study biological macromolecules, running long timescale molecular simulations and developing statistical analysis and machine learning tools to better capture the dynamics of these molecules and understand their biological function. Areas of interest include in particular statistical mechanics, membrane protein structural biology, protein modeling with flexibility, cryo-electron microscopy, thermodynamics, modeling the effect of mutations, and intrinsically disordered proteins. Applicants with backgrounds in mathematics, statistics, structural biology, computational chemistry, biochemistry, biophysics, or computer science are especially encouraged to apply. We are further interested in those with backgrounds in software development with skills related to methods development in cryo-EM or molecular dynamics simulation or machine learning in the context of computer vision and 3D reconstruction.-
Flatiron Research Fellows in CCB are individuals at the postdoctoral level with backgrounds in one or more of the following areas: applied mathematics, statistics, computational biology, biophysics, computer science, engineering, mathematical physics, or related disciplines. Reporting to Research Scientists, Data Scientists or the Center Director, as appropriate, Fellows are expected to carry out an active research program that can be independently directed and/or involve substantial collaboration with other members of CCB or the Flatiron Institute. In addition to their research, Fellows help build the rich scientific community at CCB and the Flatiron Institute by participating in seminars, colloquia, and group meetings; developing their software, mathematical and computational expertise through internal education opportunities; and sharing their knowledge through scientific publications, presentations, and/or software releases, with the financial support of the Institute. Fellows have access to the Flatiron Institute’s powerful- scientific computing resources.Responsibilities include but are not limited to:
- Performing theoretical and computational research
- Developing, implementing and maintaining scientific software
