Description: The Algorithms and Bioinformatics Group
at the Department of Informatics, King’s College London is seeking to appoint a
postdoctoral researcher to undertake research in the development of novel
computational approaches for the analysis of biological networks. Particular
emphasis will be given in the development of optimization methodologies in
applications that include dynamic networks, overlapping network memberships or
directionality information. Applicants should have a proven research record in
the development of algorithms for the analysis of networks, particularly in
medium to large size cases. Previous experience in the analysis of biological
networks (e.g. genomic or disease applications) is desirable. Applicants should
have a PhD in Bioinformatics or related algorithmic discipline. The post is
fixed-term for two years and is available immediately or as soon as possible
thereafter.

Main
Duties and Responsibilities
• Conceptual design of novel algorithms for the analysis of large biological
networks
• Particular applications to be developed include the analysis of dynamic
information (as in time series data), weighted networks, overlapping modules
and directionality.
• Writing papers and reports
• Result dissemination to the steering committee of the project as well as to
international conferences.
