5. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
We are looking for an ambitious and creative early career researcher for a position of PDRA in Applied Mathematics. The post is funded by the College of Science and Engineering and is aimed at supporting research within the broad theme “Mathematics of Planet Earth”. This includes research areas like extreme events, critical transitions, response of the climate system to perturbations; analysis of interplay of climate variability and climate change, metastability and long transients, parametrization of unresolved processes, and model reduction methods, and among others. Climate is intended here in a broad sense, encompassing potentially its physical as well as biological and ecological dimensions.
Application Deadline: 03 Jul 2024
6. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
We are seeking Research Assistant to join our interdisciplinary team based at the School of Engineering and Department of Cardiovascular Sciences at the University of Leicester. The post is a full time role funded by BHF Accelerator ECR Interdisciplinary Fellowship fund.
At Leicester, we have translated preclinical understanding of electrical restitution in ventricular arrhythmogenesis, into the development of LifeMap, a more accurate risk assessment for sudden cardiac death (SCD) and ventricular arrhythmia (VA). The post will be central to developing novel signal processing and machine learning methods with the goal of enhancing the effectiveness of our LifeMap technology, with the aims to develop VR-induced stress tests, potentially offering clearer data and benefiting patients with mobility issues.
Application Deadline: 26 Jun 2024
7. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The aim of this project is to validate the use of cultured AS valves to investigate novel therapies. Using cultured AS valve leaflets, we will examine whether potential anti-fibrotic compounds downregulate the pro-fibrotic and pro-calcific molecular pathways that are active within AS valves. To do this, we will perform RNA sequencing and mass spectrometry to elucidate changes in the transcriptome and proteome respectively. In addition, we will use spatial transcriptomics (GeoMx, nanoString), allowing spatial analysis of the transcriptomic and protein changes, and localisation to specific cell types such as myofibroblasts and endothelial cells.
Application Deadline: 27 Jun 2024
