Quantitative biology

…physics of cells and tissues, quantitative biology and physics of life. The call also covers quantum, statistical, condensed-matter and non-equilibrium physics and welcomes promising new directions. Apply by 13 November 2026 with one PDF containing a cover letter, CV, publications highlighting three key papers, research interests and a proposal. Arrange three reference letters separately.

The Damon Runyon Quantitative Biology Fellowship supports computational scientists trained in fields such as mathematics, computer science, physics or engineering who pursue research careers in computational biology, with a focus on cancer. Fellows train under joint mentorship by a computational (dry-lab) mentor and a cancer biology (wet-lab) mentor, and proposals are judged on the applicant, the mentorship team and the level of computational innovation applied to the biological question. The award runs for three years with stipends of $76,000, $78,000 and $80,000 plus a $2,000 annual expense

The Department of Biology at the University of Maryland, College Park seeks a tenure-track or tenured Assistant or Associate Professor who uses computational approaches to study fundamental questions in neuroscience. Computational neuroscience is defined broadly, including biophysical and statistical modelling, computational neurogenetics, neural population codes and the intersection of biological intelligence and AI ("NeuroAI"); preference goes to programmes that integrate experimental (including multi-modal) data to address basic and translational neuroscience, with minimal or no wet-lab com
