About the role

We have an exciting opportunity for a number of exceptional researchers to establish their own group to undertake basic cancer research in the Department of Oncology, University of Oxford.

Successful candidates will design and develop a programme of laboratory-based research with the potential to translate to the clinical setting as appropriate. These posts will suit scientists with a focus in a research area that aligns with and complements the aims of the Department of Oncology and other cancer research groups at the University of Oxford. Two of the posts will be dedicated to developing research areas applicable to the field of radiation oncology and biology.

Successful candidates will be expected to contribute to the Department's taught post-graduate programmes, for up to 15% of their time. They will also be expected to host Masters and other post-graduate students within their group as part of their laboratory programmes.
