Associate Professorship of Cellular and Integrative Physiology

The Department of Physiology, Anatomy and Genetics (DPAG), and Trinity College
are seeking to appoint a full-time Associate Professor of Cellular and
Integrative Physiology with a focus on research on oxygen sensing,
chemoreception and integrated aspects of cardiovascular and respiratory
control, to commence employment as soon as possible. This is a joint
appointment: you will be a member of DPAG as well as a Tutorial Fellow at
Trinity College. The role will involve undertaking independent research,

You should have a higher degree (DPhil/PhD) in a relevant area of research;
show evidence of excellence in undergraduate and graduate teaching,
supervision and research training, and have a commitment to the organisation
and delivery of teaching. You will show evidence of substantial independent
research accomplishment and a strong publication record, as well as evidence
