The Department of Biosciences at Durham University is seeking a Senior Research and Teaching Fellow with expertise in climate change ecology to join our ambitious and expanding team. Our Department has a strong reputation in research, teaching, and student employability, with a focus on four key themes: ecology, evolution & environment, animal cells & systems, biomolecular interactions, and molecular plant sciences.

We are particularly keen to hear from applicants with experience of macroecological modelling and interests in using theoretical or AI-based approaches to give biological focus to economic and legal instruments. As part of our expansion, we have launched a new MSc programme in Plant Biotechnology and are looking to develop further MSc programmes.

The successful candidate will contribute to strategically important research objectives as part of Durham's internationally leading JusTN0W initiative ('Just Transitions to a Net Zero World'), which is embedded in Durham's Centre for Sustainable Development Law and Policy (CSDLP). The CSDLP was founded in 2022 and operates as a research centre at the University level, with around 50 members from different disciplines.

The JusTN0W initiative brings together academic colleagues across Law, Economics, Computer Science and Natural Sciences to advance the knowledge and the implementation of just transitions to net zero at international, national and local levels. You will be joining an interdisciplinary team of colleagues at an exciting moment where we are shaping and developing a cutting-edge research and impact agenda to attract sustainable research funding and leverage research capacity.

We aim to provide an encouraging and friendly environment with a strong sense of community, and our Department has a proud tradition of delivering research-led excellence in our undergraduate teaching. Attracting some of the best students in the UK, the Department's teaching is regularly ranked among the best in its discipline.

We are committed to advancing gender equality, representation, progression and success for all in academia, and we are proud to be part of the Athena SWAN initiative.

The successful candidate will have the opportunity to work on a range of projects, including the development of new MSc programmes and the advancement of research objectives as part of the JusTN0W initiative.

We are looking for a highly motivated and talented individual who is passionate about climate change ecology and has a strong track record of research and teaching. If you are interested in joining our team and contributing to our ambitious research and teaching agenda, please apply for this exciting opportunity.
