[Opt-Net] Postdoc Position, Applied Optimization Theory, Univ of Luxembourg

[Ronan M.T. Fleming]

Applications invited for a Postdoctoral position in Applied
Optimization Theory at The University of Luxembourg, within the
Luxembourg Centre for Systems Biomedicine (LCSB); to start as soon as
possible. An excellent opportunity to participate in an established
international collaboration led by Ronan Fleming, LCSB, Michael
Patriksson, Chalmers University and Michael Saunders, Stanford
University.

A comprehensive understanding of, and evidence of primary research
within, Variational Analysis and Generalised Monotonicity is
essential. Experience with formulation of asymmetric variational
inequalities as minimization problems, amenable to efficient solution,
is desired. No knowledge of biology is expected, but a willingness to
work as part of an interdisciplinary team is essential.

Your role will be to develop and apply optimization theory and
continuous optimization algorithms for the study of systems of
biochemical reactions.More specifically, the development of novel
algorithms with proven convergence properties, tailored to support
deterministic computational modeling of stationary dynamics on
biochemical hypergraphs. Example biochemical hypergraphs:
doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0045635, doi:10.1038/nbt.2488.

Fixed-term contract for 1 year, may be extended up to 5 years. Very
competitive salary. For further information please visit
