We are looking for a talented, highly motivated and creative scientist who is interested in exploring questions at the interface between physics and biology.

The project aims at uncovering universal characteristics and laws in life systems, in particular in adaptation, development, and evolution with the spirit of theoretical physics, by focusing on consistency between hierarchical levels – molecules, cells, organisms, and ecosystem. The ideal candidate will have a strong theoretical physics background, in particular statistical physics and dynamical systems. Previous knowledge of biology is not necessarily required, although high motivation and passion to understand a life system with willingness to learn is needed. Our research project is theoretical, by taking also numerical, or data-driven approaches, with possible collaboration with experimental groups.

Throughout the project, the candidate will be trained to be truly an interdisciplinary researcher in a creative and cross-disciplinary environment.

The project is part of the research project “Universal Biology”, led by Professor Kunihiko Kaneko financed by Novo Nordisk Foundation.

The postdoc's duties will include research as well as teaching. The post may also include performance of other duties.

Inquiries about the position can be made to Professor Kunihiko Kaneko, e-mail: kunihiko.kaneko@nbi.ku.dk

We are part of the Center for Models of Life in the Biocomplexity section at the Niels Bohr Institute, Biocomplexity and Biophysics – Niels Bohr Institute - University of Copenhagen We conduct research searching for possible answers to the fundamental question “what is life?”, based on theoretical physics, with the emphasis on the field of non-equilibrium phenomena, statistical physics, non-linear dynamics. The emerging field, Universal Biology aims to unveil universal characteristics in life systems and universal laws in adaptation, development, and evolution, with the spirit of physics (in particular, statistical physics and dynamical systems), by noting consistency between hierarchical levels – molecules, cells, organisms, and ecosystem. For instance, the consistency between molecule-cell concerns with the origin-of-life problem, whereas the ecosystem level concerns with resilience of diverse organisms. We formulate models based on physical and mathematical principles, intending to extract general laws. We have close international collaboration with many labs, in particular, with the Universal Biology Institute in Tokyo, About UBIUBI (u-tokyo.ac.jp
