Lancaster, Lancashire, United Kingdom Lancaster University Full time

Research Opportunities:

We are seeking a highly motivated and creative individual to join our team as a postdoctoral researcher in the Division of Biomedical and Life Sciences at Lancaster University.

Within the group of Dr Richard Mort, you will investigate the cellular and genetic basis of the spotting patterns observed in the Dalmatian dog using clonal analysis in mice, advanced imaging and sequencing approaches, and mathematical modelling.

The project is part of a collaboration between the Mort and Shih groups at Lancaster University and Dr. Kit Yates at The University of Bath.

As a successful candidate, you will have a PhD in a relevant field, a background in cell culture and molecular/cell biology techniques, and an interest in developmental patterning.

Experience in gene targeting, live imaging, transcriptomics, and bioinformatic analysis would be an advantage.

We are looking for a highly motivated individual with excellent communication skills, the capacity to work collaboratively in a team, and the ability to solve problems creatively.

The Division of Biomedical and Life Sciences at Lancaster University provides a friendly research environment that strongly supports the individual needs of each employee and actively promotes a healthy work-life balance.

The Faculty of Health and Medicine at Lancaster University is committed to family-friendly and flexible working policies and has held a Silver Athena SWAN award since 2014 in recognition of its good employment practice undertaken to address gender equality in higher education and research.
