Postdoctoral Research Associate
Applications for this vacancy closed on 6 December 2024 at 12:00PM
**About the role**
We are seeking a full-time Postdoctoral Research Associate to join the Oxford
Long-Term Ecology Lab at the Department of Biology, University of Oxford. The
post is fixed term for 24 months and is funded by the Leverhulme Trust.
The research will focus primarily on understanding the effect of plant
biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs), found in the ambient air in urban
greenspaces, on human health. You will be responsible for developing and
leading a programme of research aimed at investigating how some urban
greenspaces, both indoor and outdoor, because of the plant species they
contain which emit certain BVOCs, can trigger significant improvements in
psychological and physical health in people who visit these spaces.
**About you**
The successful applicant will have a PhD/DPhil in a relevant subject.
Knowledge of methodologies and approaches to measuring and analysing BVOCs is
essential as is an ability to manage your own academic research and associated
activities.
Informal enquiries may be addressed to Professor Kathy Willis
(kathy.willis@biology.ox.ac.uk).
**How to apply**
The closing date for applications is 12.00 noon on Friday 6th December 2024,
interviews are likely to be scheduled for mid-December 2024.
Applications for this vacancy are to be made online via our e-recruitment
system, and you will be required to upload a supporting statement and CV as
part of your online application.
