Are you a researcher with an established research background in Chemical Biology? Do you have a passion to deliver an exceptional student experience? Do you want to further develop your career in a research intensive Russell Group University? 

As a Research and Teaching Fellow, you will undertake research in Chemical Biology, with a focus on chemical proteomics applied to host-pathogen interactions, and will also provide day-to-day supervision to a group of researchers in the Wright Group. As well as research, you will support the delivery and assessment of innovative teaching in chemistry at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels. This position is offered on a fixed term basis to cover a period of leave which is expected to last 12 months.

You will have a PhD (or have submitted your thesis prior to starting the role) in Chemistry or Chemical Biology, along with experience of undertaking research in a field related to that of the Wright group. With a proven record of achievement as a single or main author of referred publications, you will have experience of teaching chemistry to undergraduate students, along with experience of working with biological samples.
