About this position
George Washington University and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) are seeking a Post-Doctoral Fellow for Statistical Models and Computational Algorithms for Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis in Gaithersburg, Maryland, United States.
This opportunity sits at the intersection of Statistics, Physics, Computer Science, Biophysics, Materials Science, and Biomedical Engineering. The project focuses on measuring the dimensions of a single nanoparticle in motion using Bayesian inference, molecular dynamics, high-performance computing, and advanced image-analysis methods.
The selected fellow will join a team of statisticians and metrologists to improve the accuracy and precision of Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis (NTA). Research tasks include building Bayesian frameworks for multi-source data, running MD simulations in LAMMPS, developing Gaussian process computer-model surrogates, processing sub-resolution structures in optical and AFM micrographs, and working in HPC environments.
Eligibility highlights: applicants should hold a Ph.D. in Statistics, Physics, Biophysics, or Computational Science. Strong experience in Bayesian modeling, MCMC, optimization, simulation, programming, and HPC is expected. The post emphasizes the ability to translate complex physical and statistical ideas for non-specialists.
Funding: the post is a post-doctoral fellow role; the announcement does not specify stipend, salary, or duration.
Application: use the provided application link to apply. No deadline is stated in the post.
Location: NIST Campus, Gaithersburg, MD.
Funding details
Full funding including tuition fees and living expenses is available for this position. The scholarship covers all educational costs and provides a monthly stipend.
