• Unilever: A vacancy has arisen for a Mathematical Modeller within Unilever's Corporate Research group to make a significant contribution to our Systems Biology of Lipid Metabolism program. This project aims to improve our understanding of the complex interactions between lipid metabolic pathways and their dysregulation to identify nutritional and lifestyle interventions that can promote a healthy lipid profile. A key goal of the project is to develop and utilise computational models of lipoprotein metabolism to guide interpretation of existing knowledge and inform our experimental program. The challenges posed are considerable and the work is exciting and stimulating with a strong focus on human biology. This is a key role with the responsibility of leading the computational modelling component of our program and further developing our external network within the systems biology field.
