Bath, United Kingdom University of Bath Full time

About the role

We are looking to appoint a Post-Doctoral Research Associate to work on the KETO-GENETIC research project funded by The Medical Research Council, investigating the effects of very-low carbohydrate (ketogenic) diets and ketone supplements on obesity-associated disease risk. 

The project will combine a Randomised Controlled Trial (RCT) with comprehensive phenotyping of the circulation and of peripheral tissues using state of the art omics approaches, and link these to long-term disease risk using Mendelian randomisation.

The Research Associate will join a vibrant team of other Post-Doctoral Research Associates and PhD students with complementary skills to achieve the overall project goals. You will be working in the Centre for Nutrition, Exercise and Metabolism, on the main campus at the University of Bath, in collaboration with the University of Bristol, Imperial College London, and University of Cambridge.

You will gain experience in techniques related human nutrition and metabolism, such as controlled feeding and randomised controlled trials, indirect calorimetry, blood biochemistry and peripheral tissue (e.g., adipose and skeletal muscle) handling and analyses. In addition, you will have the opportunity to learn/develop expertise in RNAseq and proteomics sample preparation and bioinformatic analysis. 

There will also be the opportunity to develop skills in undertaking genetic epidemiological analyses in collaboration with Bristol. Supervision will be provided by Professor Javier Gonzalez, Dr Emma Vincent, Dr James Yarmowlinsky, Dr Francoise Koumanov, and Dr Emma Hazelwood, along with their research teams.

This role is offered on a full time (36.5 hours per week) fixed term basis with an expected duration of 36 months.

As a member of Research Staff at the University of Bath, you will be encouraged to take up a minimum of 10 days professional development pro rata per year

About you 

A Ph.D. in a relevant subject such as, Nutrition; Dietetics; Human Metabolism; Human Physiology is essential. Experience of conducting projects of this type would be an advantage, but is not essential as full training will be provided. 

About the Department
