The Opportunity
Where discovery never stops. Be part of something bigger.
The University of Edinburgh is a world-class organisation. We look for the best in the field across all disciplines and provide a working environment where academics can develop their careers and passion for their chosen subject area. We offer the full range of academic roles and have a genuine focus on our students performance and wellbeing.
Role details
As a Postdoctoral Research Associate in the School of Biological Sciences you will perform cutting edge research. This position is funded by a Natural Environment Research Council Pushing the Frontiers of Environmental Research grant led by Alex Twyford, to investigate the evolutionary consequences of horizontal gene transfer between British native plant species. The post will involve bioinformatic analyses of large genomic datasets, in collaboration with the University of Sheffield and Oxford Botanic Gardens.
People and culture
People have always been at the heart of our work. As part of the University, you are a part of our community. We are looking for people with drive, determination, and a passion for what they do. We are a place where everyone is welcome and offer a range of policies and benefits designed to support you in building the right meaningful/personalised flexibility for you.
Working patterns
This post is full-time (35 hours per week); however, we are open to considering part-time or flexible working patterns. We are also open to considering requests for hybrid working (on a non-contractual basis) that combines a mix of remote and regular on-campus working.
