Research Fellow (105748-0622) . Job Reference: 1885434

University of Warwick

Description

The Department of Physics seeks to appoint an ambitious Research Fellow to join the Ultrafast and Terahertz Photonics group at the University of Warwick.

Your research goals will be related to developing robotics for applying THz imaging and spectroscopy techniques to detection of skin cancer and other skin conditions. Particular focus will be on developing and integrating novel THz image approaches with a surgical robot, and speeding up and improving the accuracy of terahertz data acquisition and analysis.

You will be an excellent communicator capable of working effectively both independently and as part of a research team. You will possess excellent planning and time management skills to ensure your research objectives are achieved effectively.

If you are near submission or have recently submitted your PhD but have not yet had it conferred, any offers of employment will be made as Research Assistant at the top of level 5 of the University grade structure (£30,497). Upon receipt of evidence of the successful award of your PhD, you will be promoted to Research Fellow on the first point of level 6 of the University grade structure (£31,406 pa).

Please direct all informal inquiries to Professor Emma MacPherson: E.MacPherson@warwick.ac.uk

Interview Date: TBC.
