Publish findings in high-impact journals and present at international conferences.
Requirements:
PhD or equivalent qualifications and experience in Analytical Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Biochemistry, or a related field.
Strong and proven record in academic writing and publication in recognised journals.
Extensive laboratory experience with a hands-on approach to chemical and biochemical assays and analysis.
Proficiency in a wide range of analytical chemistry techniques and methodologies.
Ability to travel or drive to various locations for in situ work as required.
Excellent teamwork and communication skills, with the ability to work both independently and as an effective member of a multidisciplinary team.
Desirable Skills:
Experience in microfluidic device design and fabrication.
Knowledge of sensor integration and data analysis.
A proactive approach to problem-solving and innovation.
Training and personal development opportunities will be available and encouraged as part of the role. There will be opportunities for travel within the UK and further afield for collaborative work and results dissemination.
