3. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
We are seeking a Research Fellow to develop the advanced population health simulation models within SIMAH. This role is based at the University of Sheffield under the supervision of Professor Robin Purshouse. The role involves design and implementation of microsimulation models representing the population of the USA at state-level. You will be responsible for calibrating and validating the models to data and running health outcome predictions and policy appraisals using the calibrated models. The Research Fellow role extends responsibilities on the project to include co-leadership of project management, leadership of all modelling and analysis workflows and proposal writing for follow-on projects.
Application Deadline: 23rd July 2024
4. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
The School of Architecture and Landscape at the University of Sheffield is seeking to appoint an Agency Fellow for the Graham Willis Endowment-funded Agency initiative. This brand-new fixed-term post, will play a crucial role in delivering high-quality, policy-relevant, civic-oriented, and interdisciplinary environmental research that has the capacity to shape distinctive architectural pedagogy.
Application Deadline: 12th July 2024
5. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
We are seeking an enthusiastic and motivated individual to join the Department of Mechanical Engineering and lead the development of accurate and reliable computational models for the prediction of boiling heat transfer and the critical heat flux (CHF) in water-cooled nuclear reactors. The 30-month post is funded by an Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) award, and it is supported by Rolls-Royce, Westinghouse and the UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA). In the Department of Mechanical Engineering, you will join the Thermofluids Group and interact with an exceptional team of researchers with a long track record of development of innovative computational methods for fluid dynamics, multiphase flows and nuclear thermal hydraulics.
Application Deadline: 21st July 2024
6. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
We have an exciting opportunity in the Department of Psychology for an enthusiastic and experienced Research Associate. Supported by researchers from the Research on Research Institute, the Volkswagen Foundation is running an experiment in Distributed Peer Review of applications for research funding (DPR). In DPR applicants review each others’ proposals rather than proposals being reviewed by a panel. The aim is to make funding allocation more efficient, effective and fair.
Application Deadline: 7th July 2024
7. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
We have an exciting opportunity for a motivated and enthusiastic individual interested in macroevolution to join the lab of Dr Gavin Thomas to work on a UKRI funded project ‘Evolutionary routes to phenotypic convergence in vertebrates’. This role provides an opportunity to work as part of a team in a vibrant research environment, within the Ecology and Evolutionary Biology Cluster in the School of Biosciences. This is an excellent opportunity to undertake high-quality, international research that will advance our knowledge of the ubiquity of convergence and our understanding of limits to evolution and the diversity of life on Earth.
Application Deadline: 19th July 2024
8. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
As a Post-Doctoral Research Associate, you’ll join a dynamic team of research clinicians and scientists, exploring cutting-edge biological and clinical research techniques as part of multiple patient-focused projects. You will lead on the development of technologies and approaches to obtain data (such as heart rate and mobility) and active data (such as questionnaires) from devices such as smartphones, wearables and novel sensors. You will work alongside a team to pilot these technologies in clinical studies in a range of medical conditions. You will lead on the development of analytic approaches to improve diagnosis, treatment personalisation, and risk prediction. You will also unlock a world of opportunities as a member of the NIHR Sheffield BRC Training Academy (BTA) and the broader NIHR Academy, benefitting from career-based mentoring, SPARC placements, targeted seminars, and bespoke courses.
Application Deadline: 19th July 2024
9. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
This role provides an exciting opportunity to work, in collaboration with a lab in Tuebingen, Germany, on a BBSRC funded project entitled ‘A robust pipeline for characterising multiple conformations of proteins in solution’. You will express and purify several target proteins, and collect NMR data, most importantly a carbon shift NOESY but also the standard protein structure experiments (NOEs, RDCs, hydrogen bonds etc). You will set up a computational pipeline for calculating trial structures and selecting the minimal set of conformations needed to describe the populations in solution. As a member of the research group you will have roles in lab and spectrometer management along with attending conferences, presenting talks and posters, and collaborating in writing up the research for publication.
Application Deadline: 19th July 2024
