CMVM/The Roslin Institute
Full-time: 35 hours per week
Fixed-term: 3 years
A post-doctoral researcher position is available within a BBSRC project called “Drivers of salmon robustness”. This long-term Partnership with Mowi Scotland aims to make breakthrough scientific advances that will be applied in practice to enhance fish robustness and reduce mortality levels in Scottish Atlantic salmon farming. The position will take a lead role in developing an improved health monitoring toolbox, including new biomarkers of infection and health, that can be applied both in complex field situations and in novel experimental systems for the most pressing pathogens.
This post will be based primarily on campus at the Roslin Institute, considering the heavy hands-on laboratory mass spectrometry work, as well as challenge trials on site or with industry. We are open to considering flexible working patterns (on a contractual basis) but expect that the majority of the work will include regular on-campus working.
For informal enquiries, please contact Dr Nick Wade (nwade@ed.ac.uk).
The salary for this is £41,064 to £48,822 per annum.
Your skills and attributes for success:
PhD, or near to completing a PhD, in fish/animal health, genetics or nutrition OR in mass spectrometry based analytical chemistry applied to animal systems
Demonstrated experience and broad knowledge in fish/animal health, genetics or nutrition
Experience in proteomics or metabolomics, and associated analysis pipelines
Proven skills in the operation of state-of-the-art mass spectrometry instrumentation relevant to measure proteins and/or metabolites
Track record of peer-reviewed publications in relevant area
Track record of disseminating findings in relevant research area, including by presenting at major conferences
Excellent organisation and time management skills
Excellent communication skills
