Here’s more about the role and what we’re looking for:

This Fellowship offers an opportunity for a recently completed engineering PhD candidate to receive 12 months of tailored support to start to develop and establish a research career. The Fellow will have an appropriate Loughborough University academic sponsor to support and guide them; they will work as part of the Centre for Biological Engineering.

Fellows must be undertaking work derived from their own research questions and ideas, which will provide a strong underpinning for such as an external Fellowship application or full time RTE position in the future.

• Candidates must have submitted their thesis, been examined, and passed before the Doctoral Fellowship begins; they must be within 2 years of their PhD examination.
• Recent active research in high dimensionality multi-parametric synthetic cell cluster generation and Flow Cytometry data analysis development.
• Experience of authoring original work, in the highest quality referred academic journals and / or substantial technical reports for industry.
• Experience of presenting research work at international scientific conferences.
• Experience of acquiring, curating and analysing data derived from analytical techniques.
