About the role
We are seeking a full-time Postdoctoral Research Associate to join the Oxford Long-Term Ecology Lab at the Department of Biology, University of Oxford. The post is fixed term for 24 months and is funded by the Leverhulme Trust.
The research will focus primarily on understanding the effect of plant biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs), found in the ambient air in urban greenspaces, on human health. You will be responsible for developing and leading a programme of research aimed at investigating how some urban greenspaces, both indoor and outdoor, because of the plant species they contain which emit certain BVOCs, can trigger significant improvements in psychological and physical health in people who visit these spaces.

The successful applicant will have a PhD/DPhil in a relevant subject. Knowledge of methodologies and approaches to measuring and analysing BVOCs is essential as is an ability to manage your own academic research and associated activities.
Informal enquiries may be addressed to Professor Kathy Willis (kathy.willis@biology.ox.ac.uk).
