1. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
We are looking for a Postdoctoral Research Associate in the field of cometary science. The successful candidate will join the research group led by Prof Colin Snodgrass and Dr Cyrielle Opitom at the Institute for Astronomy (IfA) at the University of Edinburgh. This post is full-time (35 hours per week), however, we are open to considering part-time or flexible working patterns.

Application Deadline: 06/07/2024
2. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
Studies of such exotic nuclei reveal new phenomena, provide an insight into evolution of nuclear structure far from stability, allow stringent tests of nuclear models, and yield critical inputs for modelling explosive nuclear astrophysical phenomena e.g. the rapid neutron capture process (r-process) where there is a strong link between nuclear shell closures and shapes far from stability and resulting abundances. Unveiling the properties and structure of those exotic systems is key to completing our understanding of the nucleus and its internal forces. The successful candidate will support and further develop ion trapping techniques, in particular for high precision mass measurements and analyses of radioactive isotopes and molecules in line with the groups UKRI STFC Consolidated Grant research program.

3. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
You will work closely with the Co-Investigators on the project Intersectional Spaces of Participation: Inclusive, Resilient, Embedded (INSPIRE) to carry out the objectives of Work Package 2: Political Economy of Public Participation. The project aims to map and analyse the participation industry in Europe to assess its capacity for intersectional equality; to analyse how socioeconomic conditions shape citizen participation and affect inclusiveness; and, to analyse how citizen participation shapes socioeconomic conditions through participatory decision-making. Occasional travel will be required.

4. Postdoctoral Job
Summary of Postdoctoral Fellowship:
We recently found that many Helix-Turn-Helix domain transcription factors (HTH-TFs) from methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus also globally bind RNA in vivo. Some HTH-TFs have well-established transcriptional roles in regulating MRSA infectivity and antibiotic resistance. Moreover, the transcription activity of numerous HTH-TFs can be controlled by small molecules, making them promising targets for developing novel antimicrobials.
