Harvard University
Postdoctoral Fellow in Soft Math Lab
Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts, us, 02140
School:
Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied SciencesDepartment/Area:
Macroscopic Physics, Quantitative Biology, Applied MathematicsPosition Description:
We are looking for excellent candidates in the general areas of macroscopic physics, quantitative biology, and applied mathematics, with specific foci that include (i) the physics of morphogenesis, (ii) collective behavior of organisms across scales, (iii) soft matter physics, and (iv) quantifying resource consumption in a large residential community using sensor deployment, statistical analysis of data, mathematical modeling, and communication of results, with the aim of guiding policy for climate change adaptation. Experience with theoretical and experimental methods for the analysis of problems in these fields, including data analysis, geometric signal processing, and computational science, along with a deep commitment to working with, and alongside, experimentalists is a must.Basic Qualifications:
PhD in Physics, Engineering, Biology, or Applied MathematicsAdditional Qualifications:
The ideal candidate should have experience with using ideas from physics, biology, and computation, including but not limited to (discrete) differential geometry, statistics, computational mechanics, as well as sensor design and deployment, data analysis, mathematical modeling, and strong collaborative skills.Special Instructions:
