-------------- Apologies if received from several lists --------------

The Computer Engineering and Networks Laboratory (TIK) at the Swiss
Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) invites applications for a
challenging position as a full-time

   PhD Student / Research and Teaching Assistant

in Systems Optimization / Computational Biology within an
interdisciplinary EU project on plant development.


Project description:

The Marie Curie research training network to be established involves
