Sheffield, United Kingdom University of Sheffield Full time

This highly interdisciplinary Research Associate position will advance our understanding of the effect of biomechanical and pharmacological treatments for Osteoporosis (OP) in a mouse model. The position is within Insigneo and is funded as part of a project selected by the ERC-Consolidator and funded by the EPSRC that aims to develop and validate new multiscale computational models for optimising treatments for OP. This part of the project is focused on the collection of experimental and imaging data to inform and validate the models.

The Research Associate will work collaboratively with other colleagues within the IMSB group, the SkeletAl laboratory, and the Insigneo institute to validate the first inter-species (mouse and human) virtual twin for optimising treatments for Osteoporosis.

We’re one of the best not-for-profit organisations to work for in the UK. The University’s Total Reward Package includes a competitive salary, a generous Pension Scheme and annual leave entitlement, as well as access to a range of learning and development courses to support your personal and professional development.

We build teams of people from different heritages and lifestyles from across the world, whose talent and contributions complement each other to greatest effect. We believe diversity in all its forms delivers greater impact through research, teaching and student experience.
