Research Assistant
Applications for this vacancy closed on 21 June 2024 at 12:00PM
**About the role**
We are looking for an enthusiastic research assistant to join the
interdisciplinary team studying vibration sensing in spiders. The wider
project, under the leadership of Dr Beth Mortimer, combines modelling and
experimental approaches to understand the mechanisms underpinning how spiders
use vibrations for information.
**About you**
This research assistant post is available to join the Animal Vibration Lab.
You will have a keen interest in working at the biology/engineering interface
and bring relevant knowledge from a first degree. You should demonstrate how
your experience and interest will apply to planned behavioral experiments on
spider orientation responses to vibrations. You will benefit from a vibrant
and inclusive research community, with support for DPhil (Oxford PhD) funding
applications; we encourage you to share your ideas and aspirations for a DPhil
project on a related topic.
**How to apply**
Applications for this vacancy are to be made online via our e-recruitment
system, and should include the application letter, a CV, a list addressing the
job criteria, and names of two academic references. Where Covid-19 has
resulted in substantial disruption to your work or research outputs, please
explain this by providing an additional paragraph in your supporting
statement.
The University of Oxford is committed to equality and valuing diversity. All
applicants will be judged on merit, according to the selection criteria.
This post is full time (although applications to work 80% of full time are
welcome) and available to start from 01/09/2024.
The closing date for applications is 12.00 noon on Friday 21 June 2024.
Interviews are likely to be scheduled for late June/early July.
