Applications are invited for a Clinical Lecturer post in Virology to take up appointment as soon as possible. This post provides an opportunity to develop research projects, complete professional training in Virology, engage in clinical duties, and participate in a variety of teaching programmes in the ambience of a major teaching hospital. Applicants are expected to have completed a minimum of two years' general professional training in approved posts and MRCP (UK) or equivalent qualification is highly desirable. The appointment will be for four years initially (renewable after review for two years) and carries a national training number. The successful candidate will be based in the Virology section of the Clinical Microbiology and Public Health Laboratory at Addenbrooke's Hospital, and will be a member of the Virology Division of the University Department of Pathology. The stipend is on the Clinical Lecturer/Specialist Registrar scale of £25,015 to £43,245 a year.
Further details may be obtained from Professor Andrew H. Wyllie, FRS, Department of Pathology, Tennis Court Road, Cambridge, CB2 1QP (tel. 01223 333691, e-mail ahw21@cam.ac.uk). Applicants should submit two copies of their application including a curriculum vitae, a list of publications, and names and addresses of three referees to Professor Wyllie by 16 June 2002.
Appointments made at University Lecturer level will be for an initial period of three or five years, with reappointment thereafter subject to satisfactory performance. The pensionable scale of stipends for a University Lecturer is £22,522 a year, rising by eleven annual increments to £34,734.
Appointments made at University Assistant Lecturer level will be for three years, with the possibility of reappointment for a further two years. The statutory limit of tenure of a University Assistant Lectureship is five years, but all holders of the office of University Assistant Lecturer are considered for possible appointment to the office of University Lecturer during the course of their tenure. The pensionable scale of stipends for a University Assistant Lecturer is £19,681 a year, rising by six annual increments to £24,435.
Applications are invited for a University Lecturer/University Assistant Lecturer in the field of Turbomachinery. It is intended that the successful candidate is likely to have experience in one or more of the following fields: aerodynamics, heat transfer, instrumentation, computational fluid dynamics, aeroacoustics, microsystems technology (MEMS), or design as applied in the field of Turbomachinery in its broadest sense.
The appointment will be taken up within the Whittle Laboratory, which is part of the Department of Engineering (http://www.eng.cam.ac.uk/research/groups.html/). The Whittle Laboratory enjoys an international reputation and has extensive associations with a range of industries including those involved in aircraft propul-sion and energy production. It has excellent experimental and computational facilities and a vibrant research programme. Industrial links are strongly encouraged especially through collaborative research projects and personal consultancy. The Whittle Laboratory is a member of the Rolls-Royce University Gas Turbine Partnership. The appointee will be expected to play his/her part in the teaching of the four-year engineering course, particularly in the fields of Fluid Dynamics, Thermodynamics, and Turbomachinery, leading to the B.A. and M.Eng. Degrees.
Preference will be given to suitably qualified applicants with a record of excellence in research in the field and/or industrial experience, and an ability and enthusiasm for teaching.
Further information and an application form may be obtained from the Secretary of the Faculty Board of Engineering, Department of Engineering, Trumpington Street, Cambridge, CB2 1PZ (tel. 01223 332615, e-mail fb-office@eng.cam.ac.uk), to whom completed application forms, a brief outline of future research plans, and a curriculum vitae should be sent.

Applications are invited for two University Lecturers/University Assistant Lecturers in the area of Combustion. At least one appointment will be in the area of experimental combustion including, but not limited to, investigation of turbulent reactive flows and flame stability. The second may be in any area relevant to gas turbine combustion, but applicants with experience of combustion chemistry are particularly welcome.
Preference will be given to suitably qualified applicants with a record of excellence in research in a relevant area and/or industrial experience, and an ability and enthusiasm for teaching.
The Department of Engineering has made a strategic decision to increase its research activities in the general area of combustion for gas turbines. This includes the establishment of additional academic posts and the development of new experimental facilities. The Department has effective interactions and collaborations with industry and has sustained research funding in this area. It is anticipated that the people appointed will actively engage in research in the general area of combustion through their own work, and through supervision of postgraduate research students and research projects. In addition they will be expected to contribute to teaching in the areas of combustion, thermodynamics, and fluid mechanics in the four-year engineering course leading to the B.A. and M.Eng. Degrees.
