Collaborate with experimental biologists to design experiments that generate data for modelling.
Implement machine learning algorithms for predicting microbial interactions and microbiome stability.
Publish research findings in peer-reviewed journals and present at conferences.
**Requirements**:
PhD in Computational Biology, Bioinformatics, Systems Biology, or a related field.
Strong programming skills in MATLAB / Python / R or similar languages.
Experience with modelling biological systems using ODEs, agent-based models, or similar frameworks.
Knowledge of microbiome research and microbial ecology is highly desirable. Familiarity with machine learning techniques and handling large biological datasets.
Skills and abilities
High level of organisational skills with the ability to plan and schedule multiple projects effectively.
Ability to effectively handle both internal and external partners, some with competing agendas.
Good verbal and written communication skills.
