About the role
The Centre of Excellence in Water Based Early Warning Systems for Health Protection is working to transform public and environmental health management, establishing the first Urban Living Lab facility; a state-of-the-art digital water sensing platform, training base and ideas hub. The centre combines sensing, mathematical modelling, data analytics and informatics with epidemiology and public engagement tools to provide low-cost and real-time community-wide testing of population health and the environment.
Applications are invited for a Post-doctoral Research Associate position to develop omics based diagnostic tools to measure indicators of disease (from genes, metabolites through to proteins) via urban water profiling with state-of-the-art hyphenated chromatography and mass spectrometry techniques (QTOF, MALDI-TOF-TOF and triple quadrupole) as well as dPCR technology.
Applications are invited for a Research Associate in Omics Research in the Centre of Excellence in Water Based Early Warning Systems for Health Protection.
We’re working to transform public and environmental health management, establishing the first Urban Living Lab facility; a state-of-the-art digital water sensing platform, training base and ideas hub. The centre combines sensing, mathematical modelling, data analytics and informatics with epidemiology and public engagement tools to provide low-cost and real-time community-wide testing of population health and the environment.
About you
Our ideal candidate will have:
- experience in water, mass spectrometry and data engineer
- a PhD (or equivalent) in mass spectrometry related research areas such as proteomics and metabolomics.
- excellent communication skills
- potential to publish in high quality journals
- demonstrated awareness of latest developments in this field of research
The successful candidate will work closely with other Research Associates, academic leads, technical specialists (water, mass spectrometry and data engineer) and PhD students in the Centre to deliver a unique water-based early warning system for (infectious) disease diagnostics.
Further information
For an informal discussion about the role, please contact Helena Lake, Centre Manager, at hl877@bath.ac.uk or Professor Barbara Kasprzyk-Hordern (b.kasprzyk-hordern@bath.ac.uk)
This is a fixed-term position, expected to last 24 months.
In 2027 the Centre will have Prize Fellowship opportunities which may be of interest to candidates wishing to progress. These will be advertised and recruited through an open selection process.
A lower grade offer may be made (Grade 6) with comparable reduction in responsibilities and amendment in job title to Research Assistant, if a suitable applicant cannot be found to fill the Grade 7 position. Applicants will need to be within six months of their course completion date and will be promoted to Research Associate once their PhD has been awarded.
