Applications are invited for a five-year RCUK Academic Fellowship in any area of Integrative Mammalian Physiology, with effect from October 2007. RCUK Academic Fellowships provide a career path into academia for outstanding researchers with the potential for distinguished research careers. The Fellowship has a guarantee of a tenured academic position, subject to successful completion of standard academic probation. Details of the scheme are available at http://www.rcuk.ac.uk/acfellow/. The salary will be in the range of £32,795 to £41,544 a year.
Applicants should have a Ph.D. Degree or equivalent qualification and research interests in any area of Integrative Mammalian Physiology, particularly those using animal (e.g. rodent) models. Applicants whose field of research complements existing research strengths in the Department are particularly encouraged to apply. Further details of relevant research areas can be obtained from the website at http://www.pdn.cam.ac.uk/. For an informal discussion, please contact Dr W. H. Colledge (tel. 01223 333881, e-mail whc23@cam.ac.uk).
Applications, including a curriculum vitae, a completed PD18 form (available from the website above), a brief statement of research accomplishments and future research plans (two pages maximum), and contact details for three referees, should be sent to the Head of Department's Secretary, Department of Physiology, Development, and Neuroscience, Anatomy Building, Downing Site, Cambridge, CB2 3DY, by the closing date of 31 March 2007.
