Car* collegh*,

Vi prego di diffondere il seguente annuncio alle persone potenzialmente interessate. Non ho inserito il documento con la descrizione del profilo richiesto, ma lo si puo' trovare a: http://www.bcamath.org/documentos_public/archivos/ofertas/BCAM17-PostDoc_Pro...

Cordiali saluti,

Enrico Scalas Professor of Statistics and Probability Head of Department, Mathematics University of Sussex, UK -- *Dear Colleagues,*

*The Basque Centre for Applied Mathematics (BCAM http://www.bcamath.org/en/) opened the position http://www.bcamath.org/en/research/job/ic2016-winter-postdoctoral-fellowship-in-modelling-and-simulation-in-life-and-materials-sciences of Postdoctoral Fellow in Modelling and Simulation in Life and Materials Sciences (MSLMS) group*.

The selected candidate will work on Bayesian analysis with Hamiltonian Monte Carlo methods in biomedical applications under the supervision of Elena Akhmatskaya http://www.bcamath.org/en/people/eakhmatskaya in collaboration with the members of MSLMS http://www.bcamath.org/en/research/lines/MSLMS as well as the Researchers in the Joint BioEnergy Institute (JBEI https://www.jbei.org/), US DOE, and the Brest Cancer Stem Cells Lab at CIC http://www.cicbiogune.es/center/aboutbioGUNE http://www.cicbiogune.es/center/about.

The applications of interest include metabolic flux analysis and drug sensitivity prediction. The Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC) and the Mix & Match HMC https://bird.bcamath.org/handle/20.500.11824/323 implemented in BCAM in-house software HaiCS (*Ha*miltonians *i*n *C*omputational *S*tatistics) will be used as primary sampling tools in Bayesian analysis and developed further.

The full description of the position is provided in the attached file.

I will highly appreciate if you could distribute this announcement among your colleagues.

Many thanks, Best Regards, Elena.
