About the Role

We are seeking a highly motivated and experienced Postdoctoral Research Associate to join our team at the University of Exeter.

  • Lead and provide expertise in NGS experiments for the team based at Exeter and establish collaborations with other epigenomic groups at Exeter and beyond.
  • Work closely with other PDRAs in the team to identify the molecular mechanisms underlying developmental anomalies, understand how these abnormalities lead to circuit abnormalities and characterise mouse models using appropriate behavioural tests.
Requirements
  • PhD in a relevant field of study, or equivalent qualification/experience.
  • Strong background in epigenomics, neurodevelopment and/or mouse genetics.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to work effectively in a team.
  • Ability to present information on research progress and outcomes, communicate complex information, orally, in writing and electronically and prepare proposals and applications to external bodies.
What We Offer
  • Freedom to pursue your intellectual interests and work creatively across disciplines to produce internationally exciting research.
  • Support teams that understand the University wide research and teaching goals and partner with our academics accordingly.
  • A beautiful campus set in the heart of stunning Devon.
