For informal enquiries, please contact David Rand (Professor) d.a.rand@warwick.ac.uk
This post is part of an exciting project developed by Professor David Rand and Dr Marine Fontaine in collaboration with the world-leading Briscoe lab at the Francis Crick Institute. It is using mathematical and machine-learning methods to study the early development of the neural system and developing those methods for use across developmental biology and more widely. Current activity involves work on the following aspects: development of new techniques for assessing and modelling the states and dynamics of cells and how they change state, the understanding the mechanisms behind the patterning of the neural tube by the different types of neurons and similar mechanisms in other systems, and development of new data analysis methods for fitting of mathematical models to single cell data.
Your working environment will be in the Zeeman Institute (SBIDER) https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/cross_fac/zeeman_institute/ and you will be a member of the Mathematics Institute.
About You
The successful candidate is likely to have a strong background in mathematics, statistics, computer science, physics or engineering. Experience with data analysis and/or mathematical modelling would be a significant advantage but is not necessary. You will be expected to interact strongly with the experimental team at the Francis Crick Institute.
