[Biomedical-cybernetics] Call for Postdoctoral Fellowship Applications

[Catherine Crawley]

*Call for Postdoctoral Fellowship Applications*

The National Institute for Mathematical and Biological Synthesis
(NIMBioS) provides an opportunity for postdoctoral scholarship at the
interface between mathematics and biological science at the University
of Tennessee. Highest priority will be given to those with explicit
plans to develop their ability to effectively carry on research across
these fields. We are particularly interested in requests to support
research that integrates diverse fields, requires synthesis at multiple
scales, and/or makes use of or requires development of new
mathematical/computational approaches. NIMBioS Postdoctoral Fellows are
chosen based upon indications that the applicant's research plans are
consistent with the mission of NIMBioS, the applicant has the
demonstrated ability to carry out the proposed research, and the
opportunities provided through NIMBioS will enhance the capacity for the
research to be completed in an efficient and timely manner. For
additional information on NIMBioS, visit www.nimbios.org.  Support:
annual stipend of $51,000, full University of Tennessee employee fringe
benefits, and an annual travel allowance of $2,000.  Requests for
Support: Submit a brief project description, references, and CV
following the guidelines available at
http://www.nimbios.org/postdocs/postdoc.html to Dr. Chris Welsh at
cwelsh at utk.edu.  *Deadline:*  NIMBioS postdoctoral requests for support
are reviewed twice a year and the selected researchers are offered
positions at NIMBioS where they conduct research that is mostly
self-directed. The deadline for activities beginning in early 2011 is
*Sept. 1, 2010.*
