**About the School of Mathematics and Statistics**

**About the Role**
The Research Fellow in Multiscale Mathematical Modelling of Cell Biology is expected to develop a multiscale mathematical framework that allows for the connection between simple and complex biological experiments. This role will involve designing agent-based mathematical models in established software, deriving corresponding continuum mathematical models, and interfacing these mathematical models with experimental data.

This role is funded by the Australian Research Council’s (ARC) Discovery Project of Dr Stuart Johnston, Dr Matthew Faria and Associate Professor James Osborne. The appointee will be a member of the School of Mathematics and Statistics, reporting to Dr Stuart Johnston.

You are expected to significantly contribute towards the research effort of the team and to develop your research expertise with an increasing degree of autonomy.

Responsibilities include:

- Leading the development of mathematical models of cell behaviour, and calibration of models to experimental data, leading to peer-reviewed journal publications, revision-tracked software code and technical documents.
- Contributing to and publishing academic papers and other scholarly outputs to a high academic standard in accordance with the research expectations of the University of Melbourne
- Contributing to teaching, training, scientific mentoring and supervision of students
- Actively participating at School meetings and with guidance, contribute to planning activities or committee work to support capacity building in the School/discipline

**About You**
You will have capacity to work constructively and collaboratively with colleagues in furthering the aims of the School, and an ability to work in multidisciplinary research or teaching teams. You will have well-developed oral and written communication skills, and an ability to represent the School and the discipline with internal or external groups. You will have experience in at least one of the following topics: mathematical biology, continuum mathematical modelling, agent-based modelling

You will also have:

- Completion (or near completion) of a PhD in applied mathematics, or related discipline
- Demonstrated capacity to engage in outstanding research consistent with the strengths and strategic directions of the ARC Discovery Project, with a strong publication track record of original research publications in peer reviewed international journals, relative to time since PhD completion
- Demonstrated ability in scientific programming or software development.
- Experience in either working in an experimental laboratory environment, or working closely with experimental collaborators is desirable but not essential
- To ensure the University continues to provide a safe environment for everyone, this position requires the incumbent to hold a current and valid Working with Children Check._

**Applications not submitted via MathJobs will not be considered.**

**About the University**
The University of Melbourne is consistently ranked amongst the leading universities in the world. We are proud of our people, our commitment to research and teaching excellence, and our global engagement.
