Are you interested in working for a world top 100 University?

An BBSRC funded postdoctoral research associate position is available in the lab of Prof. Ashley Cadby. The position is to develop a low light imaging platform built upon the groups versatile imaging platform. To reduce the amount of light used in imaging we will develop a low light imaging modality using advanced machine learning to reduce noise. Once developed the lowlight platform will be used to trigger the versatile imaging platform to perform a super-resolution modality. The ultimate aim is to develop an automated microscope platform. In which the microscope will decide which imaging modality to use at specific time points through a biological process

You will have, or be about to obtain prior to appointment, a PhD in an area relevant to the development of advanced microscopy as applied to biological imaging or equivalent experience.

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.
