The Center for Systems Biology has Postdoctoral positions available.
Summer Course 2010: The Systems Biology Short Course will be offered from June 28th to July 2nd 2010. The course is focused on helping PhD students, current university faculty, life-science researchers, and others gain an advanced understanding of the cutting-edge field of systems biology. This course will provide hands-on experience in combining experimentation and mathematical modeling with emphasis on kinetic modeling of cellular pathways.

Molecular systems biology represents an interdisciplinary field. To operate in this field a practitioner needs to know the basic life science disciplines (biochemistry, genetics, cell biology, physiology, etc), the genomic and high- throughput sciences, bioinformatics (statistics, algorithms and large-scale data analysis), and engineering sciences (numerics, modeling and simulation). Thus a molecular systems biology program will need participation from the natural sciences, engineering and medicine.
The Center for Systems Biology at the University of Iceland is indeed such an interdisciplinary effort. The University of Iceland will be significantly impacted by the establishment and growth of the Center and it will nucleate new research and education.
