========================== Professor in Spatiotemporal Modeling of Biological Processes

Job Specification The Biozentrum of the University of Basel in Switzerland invites applications for a professorship in modeling of spatiotemporal processes in biology. The position can be filled at the Assistant (Tenure-track), Associate or Full Professor level depending on the qualifications of the applicant.

We are searching for applicants that are at the forefront of research and methods development in the field of spatiotemporal modeling in biology including multiscale modeling. The ideal candidate should combine her/his activity in the development of novel computational modeling and analysis methods with a deep understanding of biology and focus on concrete biological questions from a well-defined area of molecular or cell biology in which spatiotemporal processes play an important role. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, spatiotemporal patterns of gene expression, morphogenesis, and the dynamics of the cell cycle, of membranes, and of chromatin organization. Applications from candidates that combine cutting-edge computational modeling with wet lab approaches are encouraged. The successful candidate will have a strong research record and communication skills, should complement the research portfolio of the Biozentrum, have a desire to engage in local collaborations, and will actively participate in teaching at the undergraduate and postgraduate level.

The Biozentrum offers an outstanding scientific environment and an attractive research endowment. Basel is the home of a vibrant international life science community and provides a high standard of living and a superb cultural atmosphere.

Applications, including CV, list of publications and a short research summary, should be sent by e-mail (pdf or zip) to Prof. Dr. Martin Spiess, Dean, Faculty of Science, University of Basel, Klingelbergstrasse 50, 4056 Basel, Switzerland, to dekanat-philnat-at-unibas.ch. For informal inquiries please contact Prof. Dr. Erich A. Nigg (erich.nigg-at-unibas.ch, phone: +41-61-267 16 56).

The deadline for receipt of applications is March 19, 2012. The University of Basel is an equal opportunity employer and encourages applications from female candidates.
