Goldwater student scholarship

If you have any students (sophomore or junior) that are performing research in your laboratory and are standouts, they may be eligible to apply for the Goldwater Scholarship.  The Goldwater Scholarship is for students with an evident passion for research with goals involving graduate school in natural science, mathematics or engineering (A list of fields of study is attached).  To be competitive they should have a high GPA (3.8 or above), have experience doing research in computer science or engineering (preferably with a presentation/paper), and can obtain 3 stellar letters of recommendation.  Send any names that you think are deserving for consideration to David Giles (david-giles@utc.edu) (or ask them to contact him directly).

why undergraduate education need research

research is the best practice of critical thinking.

Do night students have to buy a decal?
No one who comes on campus after 5 p.m. needs a decal as long as they do not park in spots that are enforced 24-hours (Lots 21, 24, 47, 48, and 51, Fire Lane, Handicap, and specially marked spots).

Computational systems biology postdoc at NIMBioS

Postdoctoral Fellowship in Computational Systems Biology at NIMBioS

(NEW!) Postdoctoral Fellowship in Computational Systems Biology at NIMBioS

The National Institute for Mathematical and Biological Synthesis (NIMBioS), located at the Univ. of Tennessee, Knoxville, is currently accepting applications for a two-year postdoctoral fellowship in computational biology with an interest in using systems approaches to solve problems in cell biology, cancer biology, immunology or development biology.

An applicant may propose to use modeling, simulation, or analysis to produce useful biological information and concepts that current theories cannot provide. The proposed study should address biological problems involving complexity and dynamics of networks at molecular and/or cellular levels. Examples of the biological topics include, but are not limited to:
•    Cell cycle progression, cellular senescence, cell differentiation and death.
•    Plasticity of cells during development or cancer progression.
•    Cancer metastasis and dormancy.
•    Dynamical response of immune system (including response to viral infection).
•    Development of immune cells.
•    Embryonic development.
•    General theories concerning biological networks.

Examples of the proposed computational methods include, but are not limited to:
•    Ordinary Differential Equation (ODE), Partial Differential Equation (PDE), and stochastic methods.
•    Multiscale modeling.
•    Spatiotemporal dynamical modeling.
•    Parameter optimization.
•    Analysis using bifurcation theory, landscape theory, and parameter-free methods.
•    Processing of omics data for dynamical modeling (e.g., genomic, transcriptomic, proteomic data).
•    Integration of multiscale data for dynamical modeling (e.g. transcriptomic, epigenomic, subcellular, cellular data).

Support: annual stipend of $51,000, full University of Tennessee employee fringe benefits, and an annual travel allowance of $3,000.

Deadline: The deadline for fellowship research beginning as early as late spring 2017 is December 11, 2016. All letters of recommendation must be submitted before the request deadline.

How to apply: Follow the guidelines at http://www.nimbios.org/positions/
