United Kingdom, Southampton

Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia Group

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join a national research programme with the aim of speeding up the diagnosis and treatment of rare respiratory diseases. The LifeArc Centre for Rare Respiratory Diseases is co-led by Southampton with partners in Edinburgh, Nottingham, Dundee, Cambridge, and at University College London. https://research.uhs.nhs.uk/news/new-national-centre-to-improve-tests-and-treatments-for-lung-diseases

The primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) research group at University of Southampton is recruiting a Senior Research Fellow or Research Fellow to develop scalable advanced cell models for primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD), including CRISPR-Cas 9 editing of a ciliated airway cell line. Characterisation of the models will confirm genetic, molecular and cellular defects relating to cilia motility, prior to high throughput testing of novel therapies. Through the national LifeArc collaboration you will have opportunities to network and work with scientists and clinicians from other institutions working on various aspects of the programme; also opportunities to integrate with industrial partners and patient advocacy groups.

The ideal candidate will have experience in airway biology and advanced primary cellular models, integrating molecular, imaging and cell biology methods. Knowledge of CRISPR/Cas9 methods is welcomed. You must be a good team worker, collaborator and an excellent communicator. Additional training will be provided to develop the skills base required for this multi-facetted post. You will be given time to take courses and attend meetings to enable your personal career development aims.

The PCD Group’s research programme is complimented by our NHS activity, ensuring patients are central to our work. University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust (UHS) is one of three national centres providing a comprehensive diagnostic and management service for PCD. 

Based at Southampton General Hospital the post is ERE level 4, full time and for 4 years following a probationary period. Subject to satisfactory progress and LifeArc Centre resource allocation, the post may be extended for a further one year. Prospective applicants are encouraged to contact Professor Jane Lucas or Dr Claire Jackson by emailing yutong.zhang@soton.ac.uk

Applications for Research Fellow positions will be considered from candidates who are working towards or nearing completion of a relevant PhD qualification. The title of Research Fellow will be applied upon successful completion of the PhD. Prior to the qualification being awarded the title of Senior Research Assistant will be given.


University of Southampton

We are recruiting a Research Fellow (postdoctoral researcher) to undertake research on Data Analysis/Machine Learning for Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) in the context of the recently awarded UKRI grant ‘SOUNDSCALE: Sensing On Urban Noise: Distributed Sensing For Collaborative And Sustainable Cityscapes And Living Environments’, http://soundscale.ac.uk/.

The role 

The applicant is expected to carry out research on data analysis and machine learning to analyse large quantities of data coming from Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) in urban settings. This requires a strong knowledge on data analysis, relevant machine learning techniques, signal processing and big data, and will require the use of high-performance computing and GPU acceleration. The successful applicant will have access to unexplored and one-of-a-kind datasets of DAS in urban settings to explore their soundscapes. You will also have the chance to get involved in the data acquisition process and to design controlled experiments to address specific research questions. The role will also involve supporting the PI and other team members in effective liaison with collaborators and stakeholders. 

This is a highly interdisciplinary project with researchers from the physical sciences, computer science, social sciences and arts and humanities, with a significant element of knowledge exchange and bidirectional engagement with stakeholders. You will join a supportive interdisciplinary environment in a working group of colleagues from different disciplines and you will have the opportunity to engage with non-academic stakeholders. The project comes with funding for a skill development program for the candidate to attend training courses to learn new methodologies, as well as travel budget for conference attendance and mentoring support. You will have research freedom to design your own path to achieve the project’s goals and independently explore related areas of research, obtain your own funding, and pursue other opportunities for your career development. You will be sitting at the School of Electronics and Computer Science at the University of Southampton.

About you

The successful applicant will have:


	A PhD* or equivalent professional qualifications and experience in Physics, Mathematics, Engineering, Computer Science, or related technical area.
	Detailed understanding and knowledge of some relevant techniques, e.g., machine learning, deep learning, etc.
	Strong programming skills in one or more programming languages relevant to machine learning, signal processing and big data, like Python.
	Interest or experience working in interdisciplinary environments and willingness to get involved in interdisciplinary projects, providing expertise where needed.
	Good track record (relative to opportunity) of peer-reviewed publications in leading journals, book presses and/or conferences


The following would be advantageous:


	Knowledge of signal processing techniques 
	Experience working with big data, particularly in the context of sensing 
	Experience working in Linux environments and high-performance computing, including GPU and parallel computing
	Experience with statistical methods and advanced data analysis and visualisation


This is a highly interdisciplinary project, and preference will be given to candidates who show their interest and willingness to engage efficiently in interdisciplinary research and work with non-academic stakeholders. 

We encourage interested candidates to contact Dr Rafael Mestre (r.mestre@soton.ac.uk) for informal enquiries.  

The post is offered on a full-time fixed-term appointment for 18 months and should ideally start by April 2025, or shortly thereafter, and will end no later than December 31st, 2026 due to funding constraints.

Thinking of applying but you think you don’t meet all the requirements? Studies have shown that certain groups, like women, are less likely to apply to a role if they don’t meet 100% of the requirements. If you feel this is the right project for you, we encourage you to apply, and particularly women, Black, Asian and minority ethnic, LGBT and disabled applicants. Equality, Diversity and Inclusion is central to the ethos of this project and to the School of Electronics and Computer Science. In the School, we are committed to improving equality for women in science and have been successful in achieving an Athena SWAN bronze award in April 2020.  We give full consideration to applicants that wish to work flexibly including part-time and due consideration will be given to applicants who have taken a career break.
