**About us**:
Biosciences is one of the world’s foremost centres for research and teaching in the biological sciences and one of the largest Divisions within UCL, undertaking a significant amount of research and teaching. The Division has a diverse portfolio addressing all areas of biology from protein interactions to cell function, organism development, genetics, population studies and the environment. Computational modelling approaches are frequently used alongside experimental research programmes and much of our research crosses traditional boundaries, including the relationship of biodiversity to the health of the planet. Activity is underpinned by high calibre science technology platforms and state of the art equipment. Educational activity includes a range of undergraduate programmes, an expanding number of Masters Programmes and a substantial number of postgraduate research students.
This is an exciting opportunity to join the Global Biodiversity Change research group, led by Dr. Tim Newbold.
Dr. Newbold’s team consists of 15 researchers (masters students to post-doctoral researchers), investigating the nature, causes and consequences of global biodiversity changes.
**About the role**:
The main purpose of this position is to contribute to an ongoing project modelling biodiversity responses to interacting effects of climate and land-use change. Specifically, the post holder will lead on a paper that investigates how climate change and land use are leading to changes in the composition of ecological communities, using various global biodiversity databases to analyze spatial and temporal turnover in community composition along gradients of climate and land use.
This post is funded until 30th September 2024 in the first instance, with the expectation of extension until early 2025, depending on a decision by the funders.
Research Fellows - 'Appointment at Grade 7 is dependent upon having been awarded a PhD; if this is not the case, initial appointment will be at Grade 6B (salary £34,502 - £36,348 per annum) with payment at Grade 7 being backdated to the date of final submission of the PhD Thesis.'
This role is eligible for hybrid working with a minimum of 40% on site.

**About you**:
You will be an experienced life scientist with an interest in ecology and biodiversity. You will assist the team in the development, planning and delivery of research funded by the Royal Society. You will work towards publishing a paper on the impacts of interactive effects of climate change and land use on the composition of ecological communities globally. In addition to developing and conducting the research, you may have the opportunity to communicate results in scientific presentations at local, national, and international conferences.
You must have a PhD and proven knowledge of ecology and biodiversity. Experience in statistics (using the R programming language), working in research, academic publishing, and delivering oral presentations is also essential.
