Positions Available:

• Sec 3 Pure Physics
• Sec 4 Pure Physics
• Sec 3 Combined Science (Biology)
• Sec 4 Combined Science (Biology)

Responsibilities:

• Deliver lessons in an engaging and dynamic manner, based on our methodology.
• Develop lesson plans and materials (where necessary).
• Provide feedback to help students achieve visible improvement in their academic results.
• Engage students and help them realize their potential.
• Minimum commitment of 1 year.
• Be comfortable with hybrid delivery arrangements (handling both onsite and online students simultaneously).

Requirements:

• Minimum bachelor's degree in any discipline.
• Proficient with the O-level Science syllabus (depending on the positions you have selected).
• Prior teaching experience of a minimum of 2 years and above.
• Passion in education – committed to nurturing the students and making an effort to continually improve yourself.
• Dynamic and confident, with an approachable disposition.
• Strong communication (both spoken and written) and interpersonal skills.

Research project: Connecting within-host viral dynamics with the epidemiology of COVID-19: a multiscale computational infrastructure

In this project, we aim to develop a multiscale modeling framework and computational infrastructure to connect within-host viral dynamics and between-host transmission dynamics. The multiscale model will help address key epidemiological and public health questions which could not be answered by classic (single scale) approaches. Specifically, we plan to develop and calibrate the multiscale model for SARS-CoV-2 and assess effect of intervention (e.g., antiviral treatment) on epidemiological dynamics.

This project is led by Keisuke Ejima, an Assistant Professor at Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine, Nanyang Technological University.

The Research Fellow primarily leads the project under supervision of PI in the areas of collecting clean data, reviewing literatures, lead model development, lead data analyses, leading the manuscript writing and other areas of the project support.

Candidates should have a PhD degree in a quantitative field, such as data science, computational biology, mathematics, computer science, (bio)statistics, or related field. Research experience and/or educational background on public health and medicine is a plus but not essential. Computational experience on R is preferred. Good communication skill and respectful attitude for teamwork. The successful applicant will work as part of a growing and energetic team, focusing on quantitatively understanding biological mechanisms of infection and its impact on both individual and population health.
