We would be happy to hear from you if you are interested in completing a postdoc in our lab. In the first instance, please contact an appropriate member of Staff within the lab to discuss your ideas for a postdoc project. Funding for postdoctoral positions is mostly external, and we are happy to support applications to the relevant funding agencies. Please see below for a list of funding opportunities we are happy to support. Please note this list is not exhaustive, so if you know of another funding opportunity that you are interested in applying to, please let us know.
We recommend you contact us with plenty of time if you hope to submit an application to one of these schemes, so do please email an appropriate member of Staff at any time if you would like to discuss applying for a postdoc with us.
