Connectionists: PhD position in Computational and Mathematical Neuroscience: Drug Discovery

[Serafim Rodrigues]

*This position encourages students in Engineering, Mathematics, Physics (or
Biophysics) or Computer Science to apply.*


We are seeking students that are highly motivated to pursue a PhD project
that interfaces several fields, including Neuroscience, Computer Science,
Biophysics with the aim to screen new drugs against Alzheimer’s Disease.
The project will employ advanced methods in computer science (e.g. machine
learning, molecular simulations) and other advanced methods from
mathematics and biophysics to develop drugs with high therapeutic efficacy
against identified pathways in Alzheimer’s patients.


The project will be developed at BCAM (Basque Centre for Applied
Mathematics) in Bilbao in collaboration with several centres in France,
Canada and Singapore.



Candidate’s requirements:

- Should have completed an MSc.

- The following background knowledge are desirable

- Programming

- Mathematics

- Biophysics.

Interested students, please contact srodrigues at bcamath.org
