Job TitleResearch Officer/Research AssistantJob DescriptionAn excellent opportunity is available for a Research Officer / Research Assistant to join the Rogers Lab at Australia’s pre-eminent biomedical research institute.About the PositionMalaria continues to remain a significant global health burden, with Plasmodium falciparum responsible for the majority of disease mortality. An area of intense research focus is the asexual blood stage which is responsible for disease symptoms. This stage begins with the invasion of a single red blood cell by a single malaria causing parasite and is a dynamic and complex biological process. How the parasite can subvert the host membrane-cytoskeletal complex remains an open question. We are looking for a scientist who can help us understand how host derived mechanisms enable apicomplexan parasites to invade their host cells. This role will involve the use of advanced microscopy and /or image analysis techniques and would suit an individual who already has some experience in culturing the malaria parasite, or who has worked with other types of infectious organisms. It is particularly suited to someone who wants to be at the cutting edge of live cell, 4-dimensional microscopy and who would like the opportunity to gain some expertise in this area. We currently use techniques such as lattice light sheet and high-speed confocal microscopy as well as AI based image analysis pipelines for the quantitative analysis of live cell data.  The research officer/assistant will focus on the development and implementation of novel microscopy methods to better understand the process of erythrocyte invasion by P.falciparum. The position will include opportunities to develop skills in advanced live-cell and super-resolution imaging technologies and would suit a candidate with a strong background in Plasmodium cell-biology. A higher degree in biology, microbiology, molecular biology or related field is essential. It is expected that the candidate will have significant experience with Plasmodium culturing and the maintenance of various parasite lines. This position would suit a candidate with a strong cell biology background looking to develop their technical skills in advanced microscopy.  This position will suit an enthusiastic and motivated individual with an independent work ethic, proven project management experience and a collaborative mindset.

Job TitleResearch Officer/Research AssistantJob DescriptionAn excellent opportunity is available for a Research Officer / Research Assistant to join the Rogers Lab at Australia’s pre-eminent biomedical research institute.About the PositionMalaria continues to remain a significant global health burden, with Plasmodium falciparum responsible for the majority of disease mortality. An area of intense research focus is the asexual blood stage which is responsible for disease symptoms. This stage begins with the invasion of a single red blood cell by a single malaria causing parasite and is a dynamic and complex biological process. How the parasite can subvert the host membrane-cytoskeletal complex remains an open question. We are looking for a scientist who can help us understand how host derived mechanisms enable apicomplexan parasites to invade their host cells. This role will involve the use of advanced microscopy and /or image analysis techniques and would suit an individual who already has some experience in culturing the malaria parasite, or who has worked with other types of infectious organisms. It is particularly suited to someone who wants to be at the cutting edge of live cell, 4-dimensional microscopy and who would like the opportunity to gain some expertise in this area. We currently use techniques such as lattice light sheet and high-speed confocal microscopy as well as AI based image analysis pipelines for the quantitative analysis of live cell data.  The research officer/assistant will focus on the development and implementation of novel microscopy methods to better understand the process of erythrocyte invasion by P.falciparum. The position will include opportunities to develop skills in advanced live-cell and super-resolution imaging technologies and would suit a candidate with a strong background in Plasmodium cell-biology. A higher degree in biology, microbiology, molecular biology or related field is essential.

Role type: Full-time; Fixed-term for 2 years
Faculty: Faculty of Business and Economics
Department/School: Melbourne Institute: Applied Economic and Social Research
Salary: Level B – $114,465 p.a. plus 17% super

About the Role
The research focused position involves both applied econometrics and applied macroeconomics, undertaking directed research on nowcasting and structural modelling as a member of a multi-institutional team.

Nowcasting is determining and understanding the current state of the economy. It is fundamental to macroeconomic policy making. The availability of new data and methods make it an exciting time to research nowcasting and there is the possibility of making a real policy impact.

The position is funded by an Australian Research Council Discovery Grant “Nowcasting and Interpreting the Australian Economy” (DP230100959). The aim of this grant is to produce high- quality research papers developing novel nowcasting methodologies that will enable the timely interpretation of economic developments. Fiscal policy will be a particular area of focus. This work is intended to inform economic policy in Australia. The research team includes: Dr Tim Robinson, Professor Kalvinder Shields and Dr Yong Song (University of Melbourne), Professor Kevin Lee (University of Nottingham), Dr Luke Hartigan (University of Sydney), Mr David Stephan, Dr Khanh Hoang and Dr Zhuo Li (Australian Treasury).

Your responsibilities will include:

Collaborating with the Chief and Partner Investigators to conduct the research outlined in the grant
Conducting academic/engaged research under the direction of a supervisor
Producing and disseminating working papers and presentations based on academic research
Who We Are Looking For
You should have experience in at least two of the following areas: state-space modelling, factor models, Structural Vector AutoRegressions (SVARs), and Machine Learning algorithms like Recurrent Neural Networks. Additionally, you should possess knowledge of the relevant applied macroeconomic literature and the ability to apply it, including explaining economic motivations for identification strategies in SVAR. Furthermore, you must have knowledge of, and experience in, at least one of Matlab, R, Python, or similar. The ability to conduct independent research, take initiative, and assume responsibility for developing and completing research papers is crucial. You should also exhibit the ability and willingness to collaborate in teams for successful project outcomes, along with a track record in written communication skills.

You will also have:

A PhD or near completion of a PhD in economics or related field that demonstrates expertise tied to the externally funded project;
Highly developed interpersonal and oral communications skills
An interest in policy-relevant research and the dissemination of that research to non- academic audiences
For further information regarding responsibilities and requirements, please refer to the attached PD.
