Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Environmental Exposure and Health
4 weeks ago
We are excited to announce a 2-year opportunity to join a vibrant research environment as a postdoctoral Research Fellow in the Department of Geography and Environmental Sciences. Working as part of a multi-agency, multi-disciplinary team, you will principally support delivery of research activity on the UKRI Cross Research Council Responsive Mode-funded ECLIPS project. This project aims to develop and trial a new child blood Pb screening procedure, reframing Pb biomonitoring as a community-driven activity. Families will play a crucial role in data collection within their homes, receiving support to identify strategies for reducing Pb exposure.
About the Team
You will join a team of researchers from the universities of Northumbria, Oxford, Bristol, and Warwick, working in partnership with the UK Health Security Agency, the Health and Safety Executive, Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, and project partners Synnovis and the LEAPP Alliance. The project is aligned to the Urban Futures Interdisciplinary Research Theme.
About You
Applicants should hold a PhD (or equivalent experience) in a relevant discipline and have demonstrable specialist knowledge and skills in one or more of the following areas: exposure science, public health, epidemiology, environmental analysis, community outreach. Excellent interpersonal skills, including the ability to build positive and effective working relationships with colleagues both within and outside the University, and proven experience or interest of working with community participants is essential.
What We Offer
Northumbria University is a research-intensive university that unlocks potential for all. We change lives regionally, nationally, and internationally through education and research, tackling the global challenges of our age to transform society and the economy. We are committed to creating an inclusive culture where we take pride in, and value, the diversity of our staff. We encourage and welcome applications from all members of the community.
