PhD Scholarship in Computional Protein Aggregation, Technical University of Denmark, Denmark

A 3-year PhD scholarship is available at the Biomedical Engineering (BME) group at DTU Electrical Engineering.
We conduct research in a number of interrelated subjects, ranging from biomolecular modeling, cellular communication to biomedical image- and signal-processing.
The project is an integral part of a cross-institutional and cross-disciplinary collaboration (funded by the Lundbeck Foundation) aimed at understanding the molecular basis of protein aggregation. This collaboration includes the Biocomplexity Laboratory at Niels Bohr Institute/University of Copenhagen headed by Prof. M. H. Jensen and the Department of Molecular Biology at iNano/Aalborg University headed by Prof. D. Otzen.

The project will focus on developing efficient computational and statistical methods to simulate and assess the process of protein aggregation. The project will greatly benefit from previous work and innovations of our group and collaborators within the field of statistical physics and machine learning. Our in-house software framework includes a range of new algorithms designed to overcome most of the short-comings of existing computational methodologies for single protein dynamics. Part of the project will be to generalise this framework to the inter-dynamics of multiple proteins. The close collaboration with the experimental groups will ensure an immediate feedback-pipeline to guide and validate the computational modeling.

Qualifications
Candidates should have a master’s degree in computer science, physics, engineering or a similar degree with an academic level equivalent to a master’s degree. Knowledge of c++-programming and high performance computing will be considered an advantage.

Salary and appointment terms
The salary and appointment terms are consistent with the current rules for PhD degree students. The period of employment is 3 years.
The starting date will be as soon as possible.

Further information :
Further information about the PhD can be obtained by contacting Associate Professor Jesper Ferkinghoff-Borg, tel: +45 4525 3682.
