Oxford, United Kingdom University of Oxford Full time

We are looking for a Postdoctoral Researcher to work closely with the wider research team to generate data in the lab, including large scale RNA extractions in collaboration with the senior postdoctoral researcher within the team, and phenotypically characterise a bank of carriage and infection associated strains for comparative analysis. Additionally, the post holder will pursue an ambitious sampling study, liaising with clinical microbiological diagnostics labs in Oxford and across the country to create a large library of clinically derived bacteria.

To be considered you will hold, or be close to completion of a DPhil/PhD molecular or genomic microbiology. You will also have relevant research experience including bacterial culture and DNA, RNA and protein extractions, as well as possessing sufficient specialist knowledge in bacterial virulence, bacterial gene expression, and/or host-pathogen interactions to enable the development of hypothesise.

The position is full time and fixed-term for 2 years.
