Jobs
Postdoc position
We are seeking to recruit an outstanding Research Fellow with a background in mathematical biology, bioinformatics, machine learning, biophysics, or related fields to join our dynamic and highly interdisciplinary UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship project ‘Systems-Mechanobiology of Health and Disease’, led by Professor Fabian Spill. This seven-year project offers a unique opportunity to make meaningful contributions to understanding and combatting age-related diseases.
3 x Assistant Professor of Mathematics
We are looking for three new Assistant Professors. Join our rapidly growing collaborative team of scientists working on problems in medicine, engineering, finance, and humanities using mathematical and computational approaches.
Please share this in your networks. Applicants should apply with a CV and their application package on our website. The positions are open to any area of mathematics with a priority for candidates with experience in Applied Mathematics, Data Science, and Optimisation:
The third position has the additional focus to consolidate connections between the Schools of Mathematics and Computer Science.
UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship applicants
Future Leaders Fellowships are 4+3 year fellowships that provide funding for the fellow and postdocs and, at least at the University of Birmingham, typically come with a permanent position at Assistant Professor level and provide in many cases a fast track to Associate and Full Professor. For this reason, there is an internal selection with the deadline 12.00 8th January 2024, and candidates need to reach out as soon as possible to discuss their application. The School of Mathematics at the University of Birmingham has an excellent track record with five past winners. Please contact Fabian Spill f.spill@bham.ac.uk if you are interested in applying in mathematics, mechanobiology, systems biology or related areas for an informal chat.
125 Anniversary Fellows and Chairs
These positions are great for anyone thinking of relocating their group to Birmingham with a great package. They are available at Assistant/Associate or Full Professor.

PhD positions
We are always looking for postdocs and PhD students who are excited about highly collaborative projects with experimental and industrial partners, aiming to make an impact on important biomedical problems, specifically in the context of age-related diseases. We have the following positions open but will consider applicants with their own ideas for projects that broadly fit into the space of mathematical modelling and machine learning of ageing and age-related diseases.
