Postdoctoral Fellowship in Causality for Biological Systems

Apply for a 2-year postdoctoral fellowship at the Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit to develop causal models for biological systems. Closing date: 27 August 2025.

A two-year postdoctoral fellowship is available at the Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit, funded by the UKRI AI Hub in Generative Models. The successful candidate will develop causal and interaction models to elucidate cellular interactions and design experiments for training ‘virtual-cell’ foundation models.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Creating statistically efficient causal and interaction models.
  • Developing machine learning methods, including causal and generative models.
  • Collaborating with Prof Arthur Gretton and Dr Jason Hartford.
  • Co-designing new CRISPR screens with Dr Mo Lotfollahi.

To apply, visit UCL Jobs (B02-09214) by 27 August 2025.
