Dear all,
Postdoctoral Research Assistant position available at the University of Oxford.
Postdoctoral Research Assistant: modelling within-host dynamics of
Gram-negative bacteria.
Salary: Grade 7: £29,249 to £33,884
This is a fixed-term post available for 2.5 years at Oxford University to work
on the development and analysis of dynamic mechanistic within-host mathematical
models of the ecological interactions of multi-drug resistant Gram-negative
bacteria (MDR-GNB) and associated mobile genetic elements in the human
gastro-intestinal tract.
The postholder will make use of detailed longitudinal data generated by members
of an international consortium (R-GNOSIS) working to develop strategies to
combat the spread of MDR-GNB. The work will be carried out within a team led by
Dr Ben Cooper (Nuffield Department of Clinical Medicine and Mahidol Oxford
Tropical Medicine Research Unit, Bangkok), Dr Craig MacLean (Department of
Zoology) and Professor Angela McLean (Department of Zoology). Some travel to
work in Thailand will also be expected.
Applicants should have experience to PhD level or equivalent in developing
mathematical models of biological systems and a strong interest in microbial
ecology.
Only applications made online will be accepted before midday on Monday 19
November 2012. You will be required to upload a supporting statement and CV.
